I have an XP pro SP2 which I'm trying to connect to a tablet PC,
peer-to-peer, with anEthernet cross-over using a realtek NIC on the XP.
They both have a workgroup named MSHOME.
On the tablet, under Explorer>MS Windows Network, there are entries for both PCs.
On the XP, network setup wizard runs okay
but selecting MSHOME under Explorer>MS Windows Network, gives:
"Mshome is not accessible -- maybe need permission."
"List of servers for this workgroup is not avail."
Peter,
That's a blocked SMB issue, caused by a misconfigured, overlooked, or unknown
personal firewall.
