I am using WAMP server to run a local database CRM software. I want to access the database running on my PC from other machines in LAN. I am able to ping each other. I am able to access my shared folder from other PC. However when I try this \ipaddress\c$ , I am prompted for a username/ password window. Though I am entering it correctly, I am getting access is denied error. not sure what is the issue.
And also when I try to access the server from browser, getting no permission error like below. Any help would be appreciated
@@vivek.krishnan - any help on this?
Have you tried
http://localhost/wpress
with
http://internal_ip_of_machine/wpress
Does your username have a space?
C://wamp/alias/phpmyadmin.conf > edit >
At the bottom
Allow from all
Allow from all
Edit and save.
Restart the process.

I did the same with httpd.conf after that "http://internal_ip_of_machine/wpress " works from the same machine. but still fails from remote machines.
