The default network settings in Windows 2000 should work with XP.
Setting the workgroup name to the same name that XP uses will make
networking a little easier.
Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group
for everyone to see. I'm sorry, but I don't answer questions
addressed directly to me in E-mail or news groups.
thanks. i have worgroup name set to same on xp and 2000 machines. and i disable firewalls on all computers, but when i try to view the network on my 2000 laptop, it says "jfg network is not accessible...". i didn't see which article on your link addresses my issue...maybe i missed it.
