We already have 2 computers sitting side by side sharing the internet and
printer. Both computers have been set up through the network wizard. We
also have a laptop that is also set up on the wireless connection. All we
want to do is share files. When I go to Windows Explorer and right click on
the file I want to share and choose the appropriate boxes it gives me the
error message "Server Service is not started". How do I do this? Is simple
file sharing in this way connected to the internet? We have fast access DSL.
Also, can file sharing be set up on the laptop?

Your help with this is greatly appreciated.
 
Try start -->settings --> Network connections.

Then select under network tasks " Set Up a home or small office network"
Follow instructions.
 
Thanks Jon for your reply. As I said, I've already done the "set up a home
or small office network". Now I need to know how to place files in the "file
sharing folder". It keeps saying server not available or I do not have
permission to do that.

Thanks for any help.
