    How do I manage file sharing etc and any networks I have created in windows XP. Does anyone else agree that windows sucks at this?
    Is there any other software that I can use to manage all my networking.?

    Thanks,
    Hakko

    just in general manage file sharing, turn it on, off etc. I mean how do you turn it off it's on now.
    Also, I was messing around there and created an ad-hoc network..How do i go about deleting it.
    Is there any decent guides on wifi with XP. because I dont no if im sharing my BB connection or all my files etc.
    I hate this cause im not exactly in control of what my wifi card is doing.

    Microsoft sell Windows Server as a more expensive product. That's why sharing from windows home/pro doesn't work so well.

    If you aren't sure turn off file sharing till you figure it out.

    Novell can be used to manage networks but its very expensive, I've never had any problems with Windows File Sharing on my wireless network
