I want to be able to connect my laptop to both my work network and my home network (to share and back up files). Thus far the only way I can seem to do this is using "my computer", "properties", "network idendification", "properties".. and change the member/domain information because my work network uses a domain name and my home network uses a work group. There is some additional changes to make to do this. It is a real pain to go through this process every weekend.. there MUST be some way to do thie easier I am simply not technically savy enough to figure it out and now in detail (as in step by step) how to do this. I also understand that WinXP may be a little smarter when it comes to doing this? I have named the computer and have a user name and password for both networks already set up and I can connect to both. It is the procedure (method) of accomplishing this transition back and forth that I am trying to figure out how to "fix" to make it easier! Thank you in advance for you assistance. Si Sancho
