I have the same problem - new machine with Windows Vista Business
pre-installed. I have a small home network with 2 other machines (both XP-Pro SP2) and all in the same workgroup. Both of the xp machines can address each other using \\machinename but the vista machine cannot. It sees the machine fine using \\192.168.1.xx but not using netbios name. Netbios is fully enabled in Vista but nothing I do lets it address the other machines by name. Can anyone help? |

You may want to installs the LLTD Responder component on Windows XP-based computers. Check this page for the details. Please post back with the result.

Hi, I have installed the LLTD Responder component on Windows XP but the problem is not resolved yet, Vista can find other xp computers by ip but not by name, and vice-versa, xp can resolve by ip but not by name. Anything else? thanks.

Boy Howdy!
Yes I could find a network shares creation screen, apparently no "Shared folder" is created immediately. But more than 1 client (40) will want to be able to see and share items among a workgroup, and I could not find a place to set the workgroup for the Windows home Premium PC. I've added the LLTD software to a memory stick to carry around. New item, the file transfer Wizard ran on the Vista PC, but nothing appeared on the XP SP2 Box and when I ran the XP Wizard it did not see a "new computer." I'm going to look some more here to see if it has come up for someone else. The responses in this thread are so fast!! Thanks Robert L 2 reboots, probably caused by Norton so far. screens look nice though.

I had done that previously, and while I now see the machines by name in the Network Map picture, I still can't address them with //name or http://name |

Make sure it is \\home instead of //home.
