Networking

[Guest]

I set up a newtwork on 2 computers I have (one with XP Pro, the other with XP
Home). I ran the network setup wizard, shared all the hard drives on each
one, and in my network connection it lists the network I set up, saying it's
working fine. However, when I go to mMy Network Places, the only hard drives
listed under local network belong to that computer. And if I go to "View work
group computers", the only things that show belong to that computer. Same if
I try to add a network place. Both computers have the same workgroup name
(though if they didn't, there wouldn't be a connection). Any suggestions?

It's either a firewall problem, or a browser conflict.
