[Phpwm] Networking question

[sukh virdee]

Thanks David,
I can ping each of the machines, however can't view the shared folders. I've 
set one up on the laptop but can't see it on my desktop. I don't think it's 
a permissions issue as I chmod'd it to 0777

>From my desktop I can view my laptop's web folders by going to 
http://[laptop name] through my browser.

Any ideas how I can see the folders?

Thanks,
Sukh
