My ME machine can see the shared files and printers of the
XP machine but the XP machine cannot see the shared files
and printer on the ME machine. Router is Linksys five
port. Both computers are P4s with all updates. I used
the XP network wizard and created a disk to use on the ME
machine. The Me Saw the XP after I disabled the xp
firewall. I have tried enabling ipx for files and printer
sharing. I use netbios over TCP and am getting IP address
automatically. Bottom line, ME computer sees XP computer
but XP does not see ME. Thanks
