Hope you can help. I have a laptop for work that is
running windows 2000 and is a member of a domain (work).
I can use this machine as a stand alone. I have Bell
south DSL, a Linksys wireless router, and a home desktop
computer running XP. I can get out to the internet just
fine from etiher machine, desktpo ethernet, laptop
wireless. The proble is : I can not see the printers that
I shared on the desktop with the laptop.

Need help Thanks.
 
You have to connect to your desktop from your laptop or
have a identical account on both computers to be able to
see your printers. You can try to activate netbios or
install netbeui protocol on both machines too.

This resolved my trouble.
