Hi all,
I have 2 computers that I'm trying to network using a switch. Both computers
are running Xp Pro. I have tried to run the wizard and hard coding the IP
address. Both have the same type of network work cards. I’ve shared out the
files on both computers. I've tried turning the firewall off but no luck.
On comp1 when I go to network neighborhood I can see both comp1 and 2. But
when I try to access comp2 I get an error that I don’t have access to the
files.
On comp2 when I go to network neighborhood all I see is the workgroup. When
I click on the workgroup I get the same error about the files not being
shared. I never see either computer in network neighborhood.
Like I said I’ve shared out the files on both computers.
Anyone have any idea what I’m doing wrong.
Thanks,
Paul Scott
