See if this Microsoft Knowledge Base article helps:

If it doesn't, please reply to this message in the news group (not by
E-mail) with more information to help other people understand the
problem. For example:
How are you trying to connect to the PC from the laptop? What
commands are you using, or what icons are you clicking? Are you
trying to use Direct Cable Connection? DCC doesn't work when the
computers are connected to a router.
What do you mean by "as host and as guest"?
What is the exact text of the message that says that it has connected?
