I have two XP systems and one Vista Business system. I can ping all the
computers and that works. All computers have the same workgroup name. I can
see the Vista system by on one XP system in Network Neighborhood but not the
other XP system. I cannot see either XP system from my Vista system under
Network..

On the Vista system
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If I go to Network I only see the Vista system and not any XP systems.

If I put either XP computer name in the address bar on the Network screen
(\\dbauer) I can see the XP folders just fine.

I put the patch on each XP system and the Diagram now sees all XPs but the
Network screen does not see any.

Windows Firewall is off and I am using Norton Internet Security and have all
computer IP addresses in the Trust screen.

Are the computers in a workgroup suppose to show up in the Nework screen
like the computers did in a solely XP workgroup?

I installed the LLLP and see the computers in the map diagram. I do not see
computers in the Network window (Start/Network). I can type in two of the
computers (\\cabssrvr\SharedDocs\) and see the files but I cannot see those
computers icons in the window. You have given me this answer before and this
is not the problem I am having.
