Networking with Vista
Hi, I set up a small network at my home. Two computers running Win Vista are connected to a switch and the switch is connected to the router. Internet is available on both of these computers but i cannot see the computer on the other machine!! cannot share resources each way! can any one come up with an idea to fix this problem? Cheers!

Make sure that the computer name is unique to each.Set the network type to 'private.'Turn the following items ON:Network discoveryFile and printer sharingIf you change the workgroup name, reboot the PC.For more details, please see this article.HTH,
