I am running XP Home on a machine that is hard-wired [ethernet cable] to a Linksys G. The remote machine is running XP Pro. The Pro can see all the shared files on the Home, but not vice-versa. The Home machine does not show any "workgroup computers." The Pro machine does show the workgroup machines. Both machines, however, see and use the printer that is attached to the other. I have turned the Guest Accounts on. What am I missing here?

You need to setup user accounts on the XP Pro machine, for each login name,
that uses the XP Home machine.
