i had to cancel and reorder dsl and while it was offline i still had my pc's networked (via 2 nics and crossover cable). at that point, i was able to browse shared folders via "network places" and also use shared printers. but now since i've been reconnected to dsl and enabled Winxp's ICS so i could share the connection w/ the other computer i can no longer browse the shared folders/printers. how can i get these enabled w/ ICS on??

Yeah!

Get A Cable/DSL Router. Better DSL, Better Sharing Better Life.

 
well i would have gotten router, but i had the extra nics and all i needed to get was crossover cable....figured it would be cheaper since i only need to network one other computer, and i'm going away to college in the fall (so i wouldnt have a use for it anymore)

i think i've found the problem....it had to do w/ the configuration of my software firewall....after changing a few settings it seems to work now...thanx for the help anywayz
