Fail connecting to local virtual machines
I have a Windows Vista in an enterprize domain. This PC is running VMware
supporting also some 3 virtual XP machines. In another networking card via LAN it is connected also to another XP machine, which is not a domain memeber. Problem is that while maping a local drive in the LAN PC works fine, connectng and/or maping in the virtual machines (also not members in the Vista domain) fails. Can someone help please? Regards James

Can you ping the hostname? If not, check the DNS settings or enable NetBIOS

Thanks Bob Lin,
I couldn't ping a hostname so I enabled NetBios over TCP/IP following your advice. Pinging using hostname still failed. I want to try the DNS option but don't know how to do it. Can you farther help?
