I get the following error message (see attached) when I double click on
'Computer A' in My Network Places.

I have tried accessing 'Computer A' from 3 different computers on the
network with the same result. It doesn't matter whether 'Computer A' is
connected via wired LAN nor Wireless LAN. I have re-ran Network Setup Wizard
to no prevail. The operating system on 'Computer A' is XP Home OEM. It gets
its IP address from the DCHP server in our 802.11b Broadband Router (BT
Voyager 2000).

PLEASE CAN I STATE THAT THE COMPUTER WITH THE SHARING PROBLEM IS WINDOWS XP
HOME. NOT PROFFESIONAL. Meaning that I cannot run the Local Polices. Sorry
for the CAPS, but I was getting replies saying only how to fix the error
with XP PRO.

Thanks in advance,

=========================================
OK Computer A is XP Home.
It would be helpful if you would inform us what OS the other
computers are running.
More info is always better than less info.
If the other computers are Win9x OS, make sure that they
have CMSN as the logon type and make sure that you click
OK to logging on when you boot those computers.
Like I mentioned previously, more complete info about your
network would be helpful
