workgroup connection

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

File & Printer sharing is provided by Windows & thus is a Windows issue.

Well lets look at the name of the newsgroup. It starts with "microsoft"
so that must mean we only talk about Microsoft products. Next it says
"public" so that means any person can post here. Then it says
"broadbandnet" so since this is a Microsoft newsgroup it must be talking
about the Microsoft Broadband Networking. Last but not least it says
"hardware" So that must mean it is the Microsoft hardware for networking
that we talk about.

Thus this is not a general networking newsgroup, but one for the
Microsoft Broadband networking hardware. I'd suggest either posting in
a general networking newsgroup or one for whatever version of Windows
you are running.

If your question is worth asking, it's worth posting.

If it’s not worth posting you should have done a search on
