Hey guys. Well, I got my internet working. Now I want to share files and printers.

My computer is connected to the other via a hub. How do I set up a file sharing network?

if you have windows xp, go to start->programs->acessories->communications->set up home networking

the wizard should do everything for you.

after that, go to control panel-> printers.

right click on the printer and choose "share printer' :P

A big question - what are the OS's of the computers involved? This could cause some interesting problems...
