Greetings Brad,

Make sure the XP's firewall is disabled. It is only for direct connections
to the Internet. The XP's firewall blocks file and printer sharing by
default. If you installed a third party firewall such as Norton Firewall,
Zonealarm, or Sygate, make sure it isn't blocking access between the
machines. Ensure NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled on all machines. Details
here.
