I am trying to acess disk management in another computer in my home network withous success. 2 of the computers are XP Home and one is XP Pro all with SP 2.They can ping each other and I can acces shared folders in any of them, In computer management I can connect to another macchine but when I click Disk Managment it says "You do not have access rights to logical disk manager on (computer-name)" I have started any service that begins with remote like RPC,Remote Access Connection etc, I have edited windows firewall rule/exceptions following this MS KB http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=902430 , I have even disabled Windows firewall and also edit the rules for my Dlink router/firewall. I have created the same user with full rights in all the machine and add that user account to the Remote users group in the XP Pro still I cannot access disk magmt remotely. what am I not doing right or what do I need to do?
Thanks

EDIT: I checked and Home doesn't have the Logical Disk Manager service, so you can't connect to it. -
