Question about Workgroup
Hi, I am sorry if i 've posted this in a wrong place. I request moderators to move this thread to appropriate place if necessary.
I would like to know what is the default workgroup in microsoft windows whether it is mshome or workgroup. In xp i could see it as mshome but in windows server i see it as Workgroup. What is the use of making all my systems in one workgroup if i could still
see and share files between the systems.Thanks and Regards Mohamed

AFAIK, by default it is workgroup.
However use the same workgroup name for computers you want them to share files ...
