Hi Dave Windows Sharing is enabled and the PCs have both been rebooted(its what they do;). One thing though, below where Windows Sharing is enabled the message reads: 'Windows users can access your computer at \\localhost\administrator' This will *not* work of course. My memory isn't great but I thought the info should be a little more specific than just using the name "localhost". I thought it should state the IP address there. The message for Personal File Sharing goes a little further: "Other Macintosh users can access your computer at afp://localhost/ or browse for "G3" by choosing Network from the Go menu in the Finder." 'G3' is right but should it be using the term 'localhost' there also, it's the only clue I have even though I cant get it to change using the 'Computer Name:' field above. Thanks Paul
