[pchelpers] Re: Networking - Calling on all computer gurus for help

Each computer has to have a distinct NAME,
also all must share the same Group name...ie..MSHOME,

All must have networking for windows rather than  Windows login activated.
Also TCP/IP, and NetBios...not necessarily NetBoui...but NetBios.

Each folder or hard drive must be "shared" and given a distinct "share
name"...easiest setup is in Win XP.

An excellent short course is found at:
