Not sure of the answer, but there is one thing that always puzzles me... Why do people call their workgroups, WORKGROUP? In all my years of IT I have never seen a domain called DOMAIN, why workgroup WORKGROUP?
Maybe it is just me. Idea, What if you change the name of the workgroup on 2 computers? Will they see each other then? Or do you get the same error?

The error is "The workgroup WORKGROUP is not available..." I'm still researching and testing, but wondering whether anyone might of run into this...
