I have a question about How
to Share Files through Windows XP's Internet Connection Firewall:
I have a desktop running XP Home Edition and a laptop running XP Pro. I can ping
either PC from the other but can't get them to see each other in the "Search for
Computers" window. The IPs are sequenbtial, and workgroup is the same, and all instructions
in this article have been tried on both PCs without luck. I am trying to set up a
connection to sync Files and Outlook Express so that both PCs will have the latest
version of all documents and I can use OE on each PC and be able to access the OE
folders on both as well. I've put "My Briefcase" on the desktop to sync the files,
but I can't get the PCs seeing each other. Any ideas?
