But I've tried adding a new account to her computer (just calling it "owner") and logging in that way. Still it fails. My daughter also has a laptop running XP, and I'm having the same issue there. Her login is only one word, and I can access it just fine from my computer, but the ReadyNAS fails every time it tries to access it.
I have all three computers set up in Frontview in exactly the same way (IP address for the host, "C$" for the path, and the appropriate login/password for each system). Why would one work great, yet the other two fail every time?
