Unable to manage desktops after SP 2 is installed

I have several desktops running windows XP Pro w/ SP2 on a domain... I used to be able to access all their drives remotely from the domain controller ( \\desktop1\c$ ; \\desktop1\d$ ) .  I noticed systems w/o SP 2; I can access.  How do configure SP 2 to allow management?

Have you disabled the builtin windows firewall that came with SP2 to see if that is the cause?

Yes... I can access the drives ; if I disable the firewall.

Thanks Colin,

I didn't check the exception "File and Printer Sharing" ; It works now.
