HI

I am new to networking. I have connected two desktop computers - ethernet
connection. Both running XP pro.

Computer one is attached to the printer and to the internet.

I can both print and use the internet on "Computer two" via the network. I
can see and use files from Computer one.

Computer one can not see the files on computer two, though printing and
internet fine.' My Network Places' only shows folder with shared files from
itself..

Macafee firewall both with LAN as a trusted IP address

I have used the wizard and troubleshooting till I'm sick of restarting,
nothing seems to work


HYCH

Elaine

Have you ensured that each machine has an IDENTICAL user set up with an
IDENTICAL username, IDENTICAL password and IDENTICAL access rights?
