Using XP w/sp2,
Simple file sharing & all drives set for sharing,
Same workgroup,
Same username,
Different computer names,
DSL modem router,
No firewall,
Internet ok, but can't ping either.
When I click 'View workgroup computers', I get that message; "The list of servers for this workgroup is not available".
Ok, where is the "list" suppose to be found?
Situation;
Renamed the 'Administrator' account to my username using 'user accounts 2' that is hidden in XP and was available w/ 2k which I have done with 2k with no issues (before someone blasts me about doing this).
Apparently doing so
afterI set up sharing is causing the problem, but I'm not sure. I tried renaming it back to Administrator, removing all the sharing, changed the workgroup name and then changed all back again, but no difference.
Any ideas here?
