I have a sympatico wireless lan setup in my home. I have 3 machines. 2
machines are Windows 2000 and 1 is Windows XP Home Edition. All of the
machines are able to see each other on the net and the 2 Windows 2000
machines are accessible to all other machines, BUT ... none of the Wondows
2000 machines can access files on the Windows XP Home Edition machine. What
am I doing wrong ?

(thanks to a post in the "Wireless Network" group.
