I have three comps all with nic's hooked to a hub, then to my cable modem, then to the cable. I have 3 ip addresses, and i run zone alarm on all three computers.
I have netbeui loaded and managing the filesharing, and i have tcp/ip unbound from everything. I have dns and wins disabled in all three systems.
My problem:
At some point everyday, the icons under my network places (winME) becomes disconnected. A reboot of either machine will correct it, however, i would like to know why this happens and if i can fix it.
Do i need to add each computer's ip address to zone alarm? Since they recognize each other without me doing that...i wonder if i even need to mess with that.
Also, with zonealarm, if my computers can see each other without having the ip addy's entered in zonealarm...can everyone else on the net also see my shared folders?? That would suck
