Default 2 pc's (winXPpro) 1 ADSL & I want to file share- possibl - 12-10-2002, 09:17 AM

I have 2 pc's, both running winXP Pro. They both have 2 NIC's each. They are both connected to The Internet through 1 NIC to a HUB. (ADSL, works great)

I have a cross-over cable connecting them via the other NIC. (for file & printer sharing)

I try to run the winXP home networking wizard. It seems to work, but when I try to view the "workgrouped computers" it either fails to find any comps or it says "you do not have permission to bla bla ask the network administrator" I ask myself if I have permission and I say "yes" but my computer fails to listen to me.

Yes, they have the same workgroup name.
I think I am using TCP/IP. I have also tried IPX/SPX. Plus I have tried taking out every protocol on there and try them seperatly.

I don't understand much about this new fangled computer stuff PLUS I'm new to WinXP (used win98 until 1 month ago).

Hope you kind and brainy people out there can offer some advice and/or an answer to my headache.

thanks for your time!
