"All" computers can see Computer B & C in Network Places and can share files
and B & C can see and use printers on Computer A.

All computers running XP with SP2, except Computer B doesn't have SP2 (won't
update properly -- but B works fine).

However, "nobody" can see Computer A in Network Places.

Any thoughts -- this is driving me crazy -- trying to move files around.

Run the Network Setup Wizard on Computer A (and only on that computer,
even if the Wizard tells you otherwise), and tell it that the computer
connects to the Internet through a residential gateway. That will
create a shared documents folder that should appear in My Network
Places on all of the computers. You can right-click and share any
other desired disks and folders.

Shares don't always appear immediately, though. If they don't, access
Computer A from one of the others by typing A's actual computer name
in the Start | Run box in this format:

\\comptuerA
