I just setup a small home network with two windows xp computers. A desktop
and one laptop, the laptop is connected to a wireless reader and both of the
computers have Internet access. When I go to my network places and I click
on view workgroup computers I receive an error message on both computers that
says:
"Matthew home is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if
you have access permissions. The list of servers for this workgroup is
currently unavailable."
I cannot view any shared files or printers. Can you help me?
