did you open it up for Samba and Samba client?

/var/log/samba show anything when you try to brows the network?

Ahh, the value of Dumb Questions! smb & nmb wer disabled, & the firewall I didn't know I had wasn't open to Samba and Samba-client!!

So now I can see all 3 computers from both Fedora machines. Now to find out how to access the files/mount the shares.

Thanks Mikkel!!!
