All machines are already linked on the same work group and none has a
password. They all work EXCEPT Win7 which refuses entry. I have since
added a password to the Win7 machine and tried access from the others.
No joy!
I remember I had a similar problem with Vista when we first used it.
Unfortunately we don't remember what we did to overcome the MS paranoia.
And now they've changed vocabulary so HomeGroup means a Win7 only
grouping and Work Group is nowhere to be found. What were they thinking?
