cannot see computer in workgroup.
Im trying to setup a network on XP with 3 pcs but at this stage I am unable to see any computers within PC 1 which is the main computer.
They are all running XP Pro and PC 2 and 3 are connected via a wireless network. PC 3 has connection problems so Im leaving that alone for now.
PC 1 doesnt see itself under the workgroup MSHOME or my network places. All computers are in the same workgroup MSHOME and I have netbios over tcp/ip enabled. Computers are set to obtain ip's automatically and are set as 192.168.0.1 xxx.0.2 and xxx.0.3
If I go to PC 2 I am able to see its own shared folders as well as the shared folders on PC1. But I cannot see any shared folders on PC 1 including its own shared folders.
If I open IE and type \\127.0.0.1 or \\computername whilst on PC 1 it does show the shared files on PC 1 so I think all thats setup right. I just cant see them via network places which although probably shouldnt matter as I can see them on the other PC. But thats beside the point as it should work and doesnt. I have setup another network the same way and it worked fine.
Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance...
