Please log in for more thread options >My wife and I are connected to the internet via a router connected to a modem
(RR). I am trying to net work with her and her printer. She can open and work
on my data files but I cannot open hers. I set her machine up and use a thumb drive from hers to set mine up and it still doesn't work. Is every thing case sensitive? On hers, her name is caps and on mine her name is lower case. I don't know how to change mine. >
SP2 so I uninstalled it and reinstalled XP home and then installed SP2

Yech. I don't even understand it.
Here's overkill in action: <http://www.wellesley.edu/Computing/FileSharing/Windows/win2kxp.html>
Still kinda confusing.
Yeah, this looks humanly readable: <http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/wxppntsh.html>
The usual goof is to have the two machines on different workgroup
names. I use "WORKGROUP" for everything, but XP comes with "MSHOME" for the default workgroup. Fix. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 | ||||||||||
