Hello all,
I have two computers that I am trying to share files between. I have everything matching on both computers re: workgroup name, file sharing turned on, file sharing enabled on hard drives, etc. On the Host machine I can see both computers in the work group, but on the client machine I cannot see the Host computer, only the client. What gives? Thanks in advance to all. Scientific |

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared. Vista File and Printer Sharing- http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l.../bb727037.aspx Windows XP File Sharing - http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040 Printer Sharing XP - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...utt_july2.mspx Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875357 Windows XP patch for Sharing with Vista - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922120 Jack (MVP-Networking).
