Accessing a network

Ok, say I have a network between 2 computers running 2000. On each computer I shared the hard drive. Now, when I try to connect under network neighborhood, it comes up with a box asking what to connect as and password. On neither computer did I set a password, and I have no idea what to enter for the name. I'm trying to access the HD on one computer from the other. Anyone know what to do?
