Hej,
I have a workgroup at home call "Home" (original i know).
In this workgroup I have three PC's. These have Windows 2000 Sever, Windows
XP Home, and Windows Professional.
In the network I can see all the computers, print on my shared printer (on
the XP home), access all the shared directories on all of the machines.
I have now a new XP Home machine. I put it in the network, set up the
workgroup name, network connection etc. I can access the internet so I know
the connection is OK. I have checked the IP address/DNS which have been
allocated automatically.
When I sit at any of my old machines in the workgroup I can see the new
one... but I can not access any of the shared resources, neither can I see
any of the old computers in the workgroup when I sit at the new computer.
When I try to access a shared resources I get a message saying that "perhaps
I don't have the necessary privilges to access the PC, and to ask for the
system administrators help" (translated from Swedish).
I can also ping everything back and forth.
Any ideas how I can get my new PC to be able to share network resources?
