That's always a problem with windows, too many "experts" and you end
up with the blind leading the blind.

None of which seems to have made any difference. Some can see

another,
but not the other way. Some show another on the network, but

aren't
allowed access.


"see" at what level? ping is the starting point, you might need to
enable it through firewalls, once everything can ping everything else,
move up to SMB/CIFS sharing.


Also check that all devices are in the same "workgroup" or whatever
they call it now...
