I can see you (XP/NT4)
Does anybody know of the whereabouts of a good tutorial for networking?
I am trying to connect an older NT4 machine to my XP home machine. * They can ping each other. * I have identical logins on both machines. * I can see the XP maxhine in the NT explorer. But I can't see the NT machine from the XP unit. * I am running the standard XP firewall (I suspect the problem may be rooted here) Any ideas where to start?

The starting point should be to tell us how you are trying to connect the two and whether you are using DHCP or fixed IP address. hth Pat Glenn wrote: Does anybody know of the whereabouts of a good tutorial for networking?

Hi
The usual stumble blocks to Sharing is Firewalls that bock the LAN Sharing traffic, and correctly Sharing configuration on each computer. I do not have any more staff for NT4 (search the Internet for the term, Microsoft NT4 file sharing) As for WinXP, maybe this can Help. Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared. Windows XP File Sharing - http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040 Printer Sharing XP - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...utt_july2.mspx Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875357 Jack (MVP-Networking).

It's fixed IP. The XP machine is running ICS and is set to 192.168.0.1 and the NT machine is set to 192.168.0.100
