to have access to your resources, you will have to enable sharing of those
resources as described below. There are many other features of Windows

Windows 2000
Windows 2000 has integrated networking functions that allow for easy
networking of your WinBook X Series notebook. Contact your network
administrator for detailed information about setting up your computer for
networking in Windows 2000 so that you can be certain to have the proper
settings and permissions.
If you would like to see the other machines available on your network,
double-click on My Network Places. (Figure 4.24) You will see icons
that allow you to look for systems in the complete
network (Entire Network), as well as an icon that
allows you to establish shortcuts to your favorite
network sites (these will show up in the window
once you establish the shortcuts). Although
Windows 2000 handles most network functions,
you can alter the network settings manually as
needed. You can access the network properties
by double-clicking on the Network and Dial-up
Connections icon in the Control Panel or by right-
clicking on the My Network Places icon on the
desktop and selecting Properties. Right-click on
the “Local Area Connection” icon (or other icon
designating your network connection) and select
Properties from the pop-up menu. Once the Local
Area Connection Properties box has opened, you
can configure the connection device for this con-
nection or alter the properties of the components
