Intranet

[barski]

can anyone point me to simple guide on setting up an intranet. this is for my home. i just want to trial and error some remoting stuff i've been reading about lately. i set up the page on windows xp pro machine and it runs fine on that machine but when i try and hit it from another (xp pro) machine it pops up with a login dialog and it just will not login. i googled this figuring i easily return a how to but all i got were a truckload of sites wanting to sell me there product.

 

ps

 

i do use a router and have no problem sharing documents between the pc's

Well this is the wrong forum for that kind of question. But to answer:

 

First our you a domain or workgroup - probablly workgroup.

 

As long as your user name and password is the same on all boxes (in a workgroup), you won't have a problem working between boxes (also as long as IIS is set up correctly and firewall is configured properly - XP Pro defaults a lot of stuff to disabled).
