1. Make sure each computer has at least one shared folder. 2. Make sure all the
machines have the same protocols enabled in Network Properties. Presumably you are
using TCP/IP. Also you might try adding NWLink Net Bios, or another protocol which
allows communication with the older machines. 3. Be sure the network addresses
of all the machines are similar (NOT the same), and the subnet mask should be the
same on all. 4. Give each machine the same Workgroup name in Network Properties/
Identification. ...... I hope that helps. Networking is a whole industry in itself
and you could research this ad infinitum.
