DCC Probs

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

I hope someone can help with this, cuz I am slowly losing my hair from all
the chunks I've pulled out in sheer frustration:

I have 2 PCs, side by side. I set up a DCC between the two successfully. I
set up, for testing, a Shared Folder (called "Songs") on the Host PC.

Now - on the Guest PC, how in Hell do I find this "Songs" folder??? I have
been to c:\documents and settings\all users\shared documents and the "Songs"
folder just ain't there!! Is it somewhere else? And, yes, I have set it up on
the Host as a shared folder (it has that hand holding it underneath it..).

What am I doing wrong, or where should I be looking for this folder on the
Guest PC??

Thanks

To be perfectly honest, it shouldn't cost too much to network with two
Ethernet cards and a crossover cable..

Here is a link for DCC that may help you..

Far from a expert here but it appears as though you are looking on the C
drive of the guest computer not the host computer. You need to figure out
how to view that dir, in a network I look under networked computers but I
never used DCC.

Have you tried \\[hostname]\songs yet?
