XPH can't see XPP?I have two machines: A: XP Pro with wireless (wireless part works fine) no updates, no firewall B. XP Home with a wire (wire works fine. All updates to date including SP2. Problem: XPP can see XPH fine but when I try to highlight workgroup name in XPH is says I don't have access rights. Guest is turned on, both compuers are logon id's that are the same, the registry hack M$ suggests is set correctly, no firewalls in place, what am I missing? Workgouip name is "office" on both computers. Both us dhcp successfully, both connected through the same WRT54G. thanks, charles....

just got moved to another house so I can't try it right away, but I will read the links you provided and will get back to you when I can experiment with the two computers. no firewalls in place so that should eliminate the first hurdle. chalres.....
