workgroup computers, but when I click on machine 1 I get=20
the error message "network path not found" machine 1 is=20
not accessable. You may not have permission. I can ping=20

Recheck the advanced TCP/IP settings. Have you perhaps entered a
WINS server although you don't have one? Check also the DNS
settings. They should be set to automatic like the IP address.
The DHCP server in the router should be activated with a proper
address range like 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.2.99.

For more possible causes please have a look at
