[dba-Tech] WorkGroup problem

First silly question, have you got firewalls on the PCs?

Always found that to be a problem :-)

I have this problem as well.  We've got 6 machines here and some can push
onto other machines.  Some can pull from.  I can't figure it out either. But
we have some mixed OSes - XP Home, XP Pro, W2K.  What are you running?  All
the same?

Subject: [dba-Tech] WorkGroup problem

I have four boxes on my home network. All of them were set up in a
workgroup, but for some reason my main box cannot see two of the machines,
and those two machines cannot see the other two machines. They all have the
same workgroup name and they all have a user called Arthur with the same
password. 

Would it perhaps work if I removed the workgroup from all four boxes, or
simply changed its name, or anything else. I really need to copy about 30 GB
to one of the machines that I cannot see yet.

TIA,
Arthur
