Scenario: 2 computers running xp pro, computer A and computer B. Computer B is new;
I recently built and installed xp. I have them networked hard wire, not wireless.
Computer A can see and access shares on computer B. But computer B can not see
or access shares on computer A. Computer B will not even find the printer being
shared on computer A. I verified that Computer A shares have the user group Everyone
added, with full permission.

You may either have to set up a network and enable 'file and printer sharing' or
you may have to tweak your firewall to not block 'file and printer sharing' which
can be found in the firewall applet in the Control Panel.

If that last reply does not work, try editing the permissions in the 'Sharing' tab,
NOT the 'security' tab. They are different. The 'Sharing' tab takes precedence over
the 'security' tab just like deny permissions take precedence over allow permissions.
