re: Networking/File/Printer Sharing 4 Newbies Wednesday, September 14, 2005 at 12:47 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Gene J (1240 messages posted) Thanks Dan. I have been trying for quite a while now to get a Win98 laptop to talk to my WinXP desktop. Getting them both to work on the internet through a D-Link router was easy, but when I tried to get them to ping each other it was a no-go. Your suggestion of setting permissions in the firewall was the solution. They now share a printer.
