Hi,
Thanks for that. Im using WIndows XP Home, and although I have absolutley
NO idea why but it now works. The computers can see each other and can
share file. Aint tried the printers yet

They still arent showing up in
each other Network places area (Only the local computer shows up in its own
network Places folder) however by typing the reomte machines IP into the
address bar with \\ before it and \ after it, I get that machines shared
files and folders.
Dont have a clue whats going on, but it all works now.
Cheers,
Andy
