Make sure your are part of the same workgroup on all
computers you are trying to share with. Your TCP/IP may
be properly set, that is all on the same Class C subnet
with a proper subnet mask, the gateway properly ID'd as
the router, but if your workgroup is not the same for all
computers you cannot share files.
