I have a Winxp desktop, lets call it computer A, that is
connected through an ethernet cable into a router. I also
have a HP Laptop, also Winxp, wirelessly connected to the
router. From computer A I can view all shared files,
connect and print to a laser printer that is connected to
computer B, but when I try to view the workgroup
computers, from computer B, i get an error: "Network1 is
not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
netowrk resource. Contact the administrator of this
server to find out if you have access permissions.
Incorrect function." I am not able to view any folders,
or printers, nothing on computer A from computer B. I can
access the internet, e-mail and other internet programs
on both computers. I changed the netowrk name from MSHOME
to Network1 on both computers becuase i was getting this
error, both are set to DHCP receiving IP address in the
same subnet, all firewall software and antivirus is
disabled, and microsoft firewall is also disabled. i am
not sure why this is happening, but any help would be
appreciated! thanks, Alex!
