Ok I have two desktops set up for file and printer sharing they are both running xp, i have a linksys befsr41 router, they are working fine now I want to add a laptop running vista? Cant seem to find how to name the workgroup on vista.

Ok I have gotten the workgroup name changed on the vista computer, It shows up in workgroup computers on the main xp computer but I can't access it, and the vista is not showing the other computers on the workgroup
