I'm having a weird issue maybe somebody can assist with:
1. paula-pc (xp home) can see riz-pc (xp pro), but cannot
see any shared folders on riz-pc
2. riz-pc can see its own shared folders, but no paula-pc

I've got simplified file sharing set on both systems. I
am NOT trying to share program files or system folders.

Can anybody think of what I might be missing?
Thanks
Dave
 
I dont know much about computers.....but try to
enter "properties" for the "network connection" you use.
under the menu "advanced" disable "internet connection
firewall". I think that it is your firewall that prevents
your computers to communicate....

You've checked all the network settings are correct?

What IPs are they using? What IPs are they set to use (if
any)?

Last resort, delete all existing network settings and
start from scratch.
