Hi,
I have a laptop from work and it has Windows 2000 installed on it.  I have 2 Win98 desktops at home sharing a DSL connection through a switch.  I want to connect the W2K laptop to share files and printer connected to one of the Win98 desktop.  When I hook the laptop I can access Internet OK as I get an IP address as I have DHCP enabled.  But I am not able to make the laptop part of the work group at home.  The W2K is configured to access the work LAN using a Domain Server along with Novell Network.  How can I change configuration so that at home I can make the laptop part of home workgroup and share files and a printer.  I also have a utility installed on the laptop called Net Switcher II to accomplish that but it does not work for me.  I will appreciate help in this regard.

TIA

Ahmad
