I have the network cards installed and working correctly. I am setting up a home network and have both machines in a workgroup of the same name. When logged in neither machine can see the other. I have checked what i can think of and changed the workgroup name on both but still no luck.
I would appreciate any ideas.
 
Hi

Maybe this will help.

- Open Properties of Network Neighborhood
- Make sure that File and Print Sharing sharing is installed and shows up
in the
list of services in the upper window. If not, add File & Print Sharing.
- Make sure that the Workgroup name under the Identification Tab contains
the name
of the domain.
- Make sure the 9.x machines are pointing to valid WINS addresses.
