Yes, and its running on most of the PCs on the network, which is the only 
errors I see in the logs are related to computers fighting over who is the 
browser but those are benign errors that can be ignored as far as I know.

    Have a PC with a new installation of XP Pro, updated to the most recent 
Windows updates. Its on a peer to peer network with a mix of XP, Vista home and 
business and 7. I can ping other computers by their name, I can put 
\\computername and see the shares on the other PCs but what I can do is click 
on "view workgroup computers", I just get an error stating " Workgroup is not 
accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact 
the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. 
The network path was not found". 



    NetBIOS over TCP is enabled

    File sharing and client for microsoft networks are checked

    Microsoft client is using Windows Locator

    Simple file sharing is disabled (still had the problem when it was.)

    There are no other networking protocols enabled, just tcp/ip.



    Anyone have any ideas because I'm about out of them and I've been doing 
some serious googling. I may just do another bare metal install if I can't get 
this thing going soon.
