Hi all,

***Could someone meet me on Skype?***

I have two laptops Sony and a Toshiba linked to a Vigour router and both 
running XP. The Toshiba is linked to the router through a cable but the Sony is 
linked wirelessly. To create a home network, I used the XP Network Setup Wizard 
on both machines last night starting with the Toshiba first, and on both 
laptops I enabled the sharing files option.

The problem. On the Sony I can see all the folders I chose to share from both 
laptops in My Network Places. However, the Toshiba laptop isn't showing the 
folders I chose to share from the Sony. I.E. in My Network Places on the 
Toshiba, I can only see the Toshiba's shared folders itself.

If someone can help through email I'd be grateful, but as well, this networking 
business is totally new to me so I'd be very grateful if someone can spare 10 
minutes to meet me on Skype so I can ask couple of quick more questions - think 
that will be more efficient.

Thanks in anticipation,
Amro
