    File Sharing?
    Josh
    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    What's your network setup? And what OSes are the two computers running?

    Have you set up network settings yet?

    right click My network places, choose properties

    Advanced > Network Identification

    Muck around in there a bit...

    Also go to your local area connection properties and make sure file and printer sharing is enabled.

    No I was just agreeing with you

    Stop whining ***** i used a laptop as my MAIN computer for 2 years until I woke up, saw the light, gathered my last bits of money and built a computer.

    In order to share files with NT or XP machines... you need to be sure that the users your are logging on to each system is a valid username (and same password) on the other machine...
