| 316781 | 2005-01-22 14:40:00 | A tale of three PCs on a home LAN. Win2k on 2 PCs(NTFS), WinXP on the third. ADSL router modem as the switch/hub. All machines can access the WWW. But printer sharing is a nightmare. File and device (CDRW) sharing is as bad. Why is it soooo difficult? This is a home LAN. Two grandparents and one (responsible) grand daughter. Paranoic security is quite obscene. This type of problem seems to be spoken of in hushed tones, even by techs. If it's too complex to cover on this forum, can anyone point me to a manual, or a web site or some other resource that will give me step-by-step instructions. Pretty please. The matter is driving me to drink! (more!) Perry the perplexed Hi what is win2k. It does help if you have XP on all the machines you are going to network. |
