I am just a beginner at this networking stuff myself, but i believe the answer to your question is No. file and print sharing is not a requirement to "see" other nodes on your network. However, you must be in the same workgroup. That much I believe is true. The file and print sharing selection is only necessary to transfer or access data from other puters or nodes in your workgroup or domain. As long as your connected within a peer to peer workgroup or a client/server domain, and have the proper topigraphical connections..ie hub...you should "see" the other nodes in the network...(this is my best guess), Hope its helpful !
