Somebody please help. Three computers in my wireless network, two xp home and one vista prem. The two xp machines can see into the vista machine and the vista machine can see, map and see shared files on the xp machines, but as soon as I try and access the shared files all I get is: "\\computer name\shareddocs\file name" is not accessible. You might not have permissions to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you access permissions. The specified network name is no longer available. Both the xp machines have LLTD installed. Just found out that if I connect a xp machine to my router by cable then vista can access all shared files, as soon as i go wireless it can't. Please help -- andypandy933 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ andypandy933's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=25021 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=735236 http://forums.techarena.in |

First find the IP by using ipconfig command in the remote computer B. Then use this command: net view \\192.168.1.2 from other computer A (here the 192.168.1.2 is the remote computer B IP address.

If you using net view \\ipaddress and receive system error 51, this could be the firewall. For a test, disable all firewall and security software. Can you ping each other?

Andy - I had the same problem. I went to the properties advance security and
set it for "everyone" had all access then it worked. It seems to be a new change you need to do with Vista networks. Russ "andypandy933" wrote: Somebody please help.
