Done.

Done.
Now "net view" still shows only the T43, but "net view \\name" shows all the
shared resources on the other machine.
In Sharing and Connecting, trying to make a connection shows only the T43 as a
server.
What do I need to do to get my other machine to show up on "net view" -- and
then, presumably, on the server list in Sharing and Connecting?
I've never had two machines before, so thanks for the patience of everyone so
far.
