Finally I can "see" the eMac on the PC, and can see the PC on the eMac.
I know from experience that this is only temporary, an elusive thing. Next time I restart Windows XP or the Mac, it's likely one or both will have gone. It's more likely that I won't be able to see the PC from the Mac though, and much easier to reclaim the Mac from the PC by adding a Network Place. But it seems just a stroke of luck to get the PC back onto the Mac once lost.
Is there a way to keep it on the Mac? Is an alias the way to go? If so, that's likely to suddenly disappear too (I've tried it before). Is there a special place to put an alias, or for that matter the original? The original is sitting on my desktop for now.
I'm grasping at straws. Is there a script for this? If so, that'll be fun since I know absolutely nothing about scripts.
I love this eMac, and I'm glad there's a lot to learn. But I wish some things were as automatic as the XP.
Sorry if this sounds more like a diary than a question, but that's about the way it is: got the eMac in October, and working every day on it, I'm only this far....
