I suspect that the OneCare firewall on #1 is blocking access from the other computers. Check in Windows Security Center and see if it says that more than one firewall is enabled. If so, that's likely to cause problems. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.

Yes that did it. I had to shut down OneCare firewall and turn on the windows
firewall. Does windows firewall offer the same protection OneCare does. Is there a way to set permissions in OneCare to only let in the authorized? Thanks, been battleing this for several days.
