Hey Guys...

I apologize for the simplicity of this question, but I am not finding a resolution to my problem. I have a simple 3-rig network at home.

Rig 1 is direct-connected to my Linksys Wireless Router, which is direct-connected to the cable modem.

Rig 2 & 3 each have Linksys Wireless Network cards, and currently have internet access flawlessly.

However, there is a printer and some files on Rig 3 that I want Rig 2 to have access to, but I cannot figure out a way to configure either Rig 2 or Rig 3 to allow this.

All PCs are running Windows XP Professional SP2. Rig 2 is using Microsoft's internal firewall, while Rig 3 is using ZoneAlarm Pro.

Any thoughts?

is sharing turned on?

you have to allow the local network address (192.168.0.0) access. In zonealarm, make that part of the network part of the trusted and not internet zone.

That was it. Apparently, File Sharing was not enabled. Duh, how did I miss that. Thanks for the direction, Know Nuttin.
