I cannot see shared printers on other XP machines in a
workgroup...nore can I see shares on any XP machine.

Tried to change access this computer from the network in
local policy...I can add the workgroup users, as soon as
I hit ok or apply - I get the error 'failed to save local
policy database'

There is a domain controller in the network, W2k...does
it have anything to do with this? Active directory on
the DC knows about the other XP computers...which have no
trouble accessing the DC.
