I have set up a Hamachi network to allow multiple people to work on a bf2 mod. I can access the files on my friend's computer, but he doesn't get access to mine. Whenever he tries to view files that I shared [entering \\«my Hamachi-IP»], he's promted to enter a user name and password. This is because I disabled the "Simple File Sharing" option in Windows XP [have to do that for a reason...]. But the problem is, that I have no clue what username and password he has to type in and where I can set it up at all. Thx already

You probably need to specify a username and make them a member of a group that is associated with the folder/resource they are able to access. This "how to" might help out a bit:

Probably YOUR account name and password
Or an other one, but that depends on the folder he tries to access.
