Two adjacent connected pc's - the one, A, with XP Pro the other, B, with XP
Home installed.

Simple question = How do I network them so that ALL files on A can be viewed
and accessed from B and ALL files on B can be accessed from A?

There's something I can't quite grasp. I can get "Shared" stuff from
each...but I want to view and access EVERYTHING.
Thanks.
 
Turn simple file sharing off. Set what you want.

Try pressing the F1 key or clicking the HELP menu while in
Windows Explorer. Look for file sharing. It is all
covered.

Somehow...and I'm not exactly sure how...managed to achieve exactly what I
want - access to all files on A from B and vic -versa.
Thanks for the help.
