Networking Help ASAP

Hey guys I have 2 computers that I am rying to network together for a customer. I have file and printer sharing turned on etc. I have configured the firewalls. The one computer is XP Pro the other is Home. The Pro computer can see and acess the home computer but the Home computer cannot access the pro computer. HELP ASAP would be great thanks

Mike

The better question is, a customer? This is a problem your asking from help on a bulletin board and your charging these people?

So "but the Home computer cannot access the pro computer" is basically useless to those trying to help you troubleshoot. Perhaps elaborating a bit might help. What happens, what errors, what method are you using to get to shared resources? That kind of thing.

I figured it out guys. I was at a loss, but no I did not charge them for the time I was trying to find a solution. The whole time I was thinking it had to be a firewall problem and it turned out it was McAfee, even though I had disabled it etc. the process was still starting and it wouldn't let me kill it. Problem is solved now. Thanks Anyways
