LAN Problem

I have two computers linked through a hub and sharing an ADSL connection to the internet. I am trying to see each of the computers on the LAN without success so far. They both have the same OS, Win XP Pro SP2. They both have the same settings for file sharing and HD C. The firewall settings, Windows Firewall settings are the same for both. They both have Client for Microsoft Networks and File and Printer Sharing enabled. The workgroup name is the same
The situation, at present, is that No ! can see No2 in the network connections but trying to access My Documents comes up with the answer that I do not have access. No 2 cannot see No1 on the Network but I am able to find it by searching for another computer on the network. Having found it access is refused.
I know I am missing something obvious, but what is it?
