3 PCs.
Call them "A", "B", and "C".
A and C can see B and copy files to/from it's shares.
But B cannot see any shares of A or C and, when My Network Places
is opened up, does not see the local work group (whose name is
"303")
However B can ping A and C by name ("Giga" and "Sage"
respectively)
But A and C cannot ping B by name - although they *can* ping it
by IP address.
Does any of this suggest a reason why B cannot see A's shares,
B's shares, or the local work group?
