Mario,
There are many possibilities for file sharing not working, and not too many
details that you've provided yet.
Let's do some diagnostic work, and see what the problem is.
Please provide ipconfig information for each computer.
Start - Run - "cmd". Type "ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt" into the command
window - Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post.
Identify operating system (by name and version) with each ipconfig listing.
Here's an easier diagnostic. One report for each computer.
Get SoftPerfect Network Scanner (free).
<http://www.softperfect.com/products/networkscanner/>
SNS will produce you a nice text report, showing all visible computers and
shares.
Install and run on each computer please:
Options - Auto Detect IP Range
Options - Program Options - Scan for shared resources, All, Resolve
host names
File - Start Scanning
File - Save Results
And attach 3 text reports.
Cheers,
Chuck
Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing.
