Answer Wiki:
Try \IP_address to resolve any DNS issues. Make sure you are sharing at lease one file on each computer to make sure network file sharing is turned on. Since it doesn't seem to be a network with a domain, you should also make sure the users are logging into the mulit-user computers with a valid username and password on the local machine.
