  Rich,

  They have the same Workgroup names.

  Where on NT and on WXP does one set them to use NetBIOS over TCP/IP?

  Under NT the Protocols page just shows NetBEUI Protocol and TCP/IP =
Protocol. Is that=20
  enough for the NT machine to be able to do sharing with the WXP =
machine?

  Do NT and WXP machines have the ability to respond to Ping enabled by =
default?
