[pchelpers] Re: pc does not see shared files

If only there was a third system connected, the culprit could be found 
more quickly. That's because 3 machines on a network (where 1 is not 
networking properly) will give 2 ok and 1 not. With only 2 it's a 
guessing game to some extent. Which protocol are you using to share 
files (TCP/IP or NETBEUI)? If you can add NETBEUI to both machines it 
often helps. It is great for sharing on local networks, but won't go to 
the internet.
