It (RODS) simply just disappeared. All good from that perpective...somehow
Now the wifes XP Pro machine can see the DAVIES workgroup, can see the computer named ROD but gets the " \\rod is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this resource" dialog box. Getting closer...I think! Rgds Rod "Rod Davies" wrote in message ...

Computer browser takes time. The old computer name may take for a while to disappear.
Regarding the \\rod is not accessible, it could be firewall, name resolution and computer browser issues. Can you do net use \\rodip? Note: replace the IP address of rod instead of rod.

You can speed things up by turning off every computer in the LAN at the same time, then power them all back up again. This avoids any stale data from getting tossed around as they renegotiate over who gets to be the master browser. -- Insert something clever here.
