I have installed BSM on all computers and installed the lastest 250 meg
update to all computers. I am trying to share the database via the wizzard
but it only shows local accounts as avaiable. This is a peer to peer network
and aftering reading the prodcut description i decided to give it a go. It
says that the update is designed to work with a peer to peer newtork. How do
i add a user from a different computer access to the database?

BCM uses Windows security. To authenticate a user between two different
machines in a workgroup, the user must exist with the same password on both
machines.

Hi
I have the same problem as scott816: 2 XPPRO/SP2 machines on a peer to peer
lan, both have user " administrator" with blank password. When I try to
connect to the BCM base from the second PC , it only propose local account
and local machine. How do I connect to the remote base ? Do I have to
activate something somewhere ? Of course BCM base has been "shared" on 1st
machine.
Many unanswered posts are around Internet about this problem..

I anybody could give a step by step tutorial, would be usefull
