    Share files and folders w/ XP and Vista ?

    I have a home network which consist of 3 desktop, and wireless laptop
    1.98 se. ed. Desktop
    a)Workgroup: “SAME NAME” b) Computer name: pittsedition
    2.XP desktop
    a)Workgroup: “SAME NAME” b) Computer name: pittseditionxp
    3.Vista desktop
    a)Workgroup: “SAME NAME” b) Computer name: pittseditionvis
    4.Vista wireless laptop
    a)Workgroup: “SAME NAME” b) Computer name: pittseditionlap
    This network connection a cable modem and router, I am not using the 98 for sharing purposes, but the others I will be. I looked at the Ethernet IP address all are the same.
    In Network and sharing forum, when I ask to view computers and devices I see:

    XP desk shows: pittseditionlap
    Vista laptop shows: pittseditionlap, pittseditionvis
    Vista desktop shows: pittseditionlap, pittseditionvis
    I need to know what am I doing wrong, and after I fix it, how to I send and get files and folders.
