[AccessD] OT: can't see workgroup

John,

This site:

http://www.michna.com/kb/wxnet.htm

  Covers just about everything related to networking.

  In general, if your setup was working before and not now, you probably do
have a Firewall in place somewhere that got turned on (SP2?).  Take a look
through the link.  It has a Wizard to help or you can read through the step
by steps below.

Jim.

Are you using Software Firewalls on the systems. I have had problems with
that on my home network. When I deactivate the firewalls and I can see the
other systems.
