Can you see the password as *********** ?
If you can I have a small little program that will reveal the password for you

It sounds like you aren't logging on with the password you assigned the 
box at the beginning.  That happened to me with a machine at work.  No 
one knew the password so I used an off-the-shelf program from PCWorld to 
 retrieve it.  It was on a Windows 98 machine, though.  I understand XP 
has much harder security.

George,

Thanks for the links I'm sure they'll be helpful.

My networking snag is very simple I'm sure.  Its likely I'm just missing
something simple.  I have two XP Pro machines plugged into a syslink router.
Both access the net without problem.  The firewall on both machines (ZA) are
configured to "trust" the IP from the other machine.

Computer #1 can see itself and machine #2 in the workgroup, NP.  The problem
seems to be with machine #2.  Computer #2 cannot see either itself or
Computer #1 in the workgroup.  As a result Although Computer #1 can see it,
I can't access it.

I'm thinking I've simply missed a simple click or two somewhere.  It all
seems straight forward.  So either its too simple for me to grasp or I'm too
simple to understand it, LOL

I'll keep playing with it.

SC

Looking at a second hand 1 Ghtz AMD as well but have yet to decide if

to add it.  If I ever figure out how to actually successfully network

together I may add a couple more.

Networking is FUN! Actually that is how I learned. I started small and
now have 15 here at home all running and all talking to each other.
Varies from 98se to 2k to xphome. Even had a Longhorn running for
awhile, it would NOT network but it ran okay.

Fun? LOL I'm tearing my hair out.  If pain and suffering is fun, then

yes,

networking is a blast, lol.
