I have no idea what or where it is.

Sorry, we must be using completely different versions of XP, I can't find
any of it, all I know is, connection is TCP/IP

However, searching around in Network Connections > Menubar Advanced >
Adaptors & Bindings, I manually ticked on Bindings for LAN "File and
Printer sharing for Microsoft Networks" and suddenly LM98 does the
business.

I'm now going to reboot both computers and see if it sticks.

Yup! It's all still working okay.

So this begs a question, how the (rude word) did it get switched off?

Thank for your thoughts.
