Networking problem and connecting to Windows 2000 server
What do you mean "It doesn't show up"? Do you have VPN to connect these two domains?

In XP I would map network drive....pick the drive letter i wanted and then
Browse to see Browse For Folder...in here i would see My Network PlacesEntire NetworkBoth of our domains.....I then can expand the Server in outside office and connect.....With Vista....Map Network DriveBrowse to see Browse For Folder and in here i see.....Select a Shared FolderNetwork.....and here i see my PC and another PC......this time...in the past i have seen other PCs on the domain i'm working in but do not and have never had the ablilty to connect to the other domain...... How do you do that in Vista......???????????? "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: What do you mean "It doesn't show up"? Do you have VPN to connect these two domains?

Networking problem and connecting to Windows 2000 server
We still don't know how you connect to two domains, VPN or they are in the same subnet. The only answer I have is computer browser issue may be related to the WINS or master browser. This link may help too,

Networking problem and connecting to Windows 2000 server
As I said that you may want to check the WINS and master browser. Or use browstat.exe to check the master browser status.

Networking problem and connecting to Windows 2000 server
Bob,
thanks for all the help so far....I really need to get this problem fixed.....So i understand your master browser and WINS....I will need to check this on the server that is not in the home office and that is the Windows 2000 server... 1. Do I check the master browser on both servers? 2. WINS.....what do i check? "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: As I said that you may want to check the WINS and master browser.

Networking problem and connecting to Windows 2000 server
This problem is getting nowhere fast!!.....after 2 months
research.....nothing...zilch...notta.... Found an article about the Link Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) responder....installed that on an XP machine.....still doesn't show up..... Found an article about this.......still doesn't work...... The first step in locally enabling the network map is to run the Group Policy Object Editor (gpedit.msc) as an administrator on the local machine. With User Account Control (UAC) enabled, just right-click “Command Prompt” (Start Menu-All Programs-Accessories) and select “Run as administrator” to open an elevated command prompt. From the elevated command prompt, run the command “gpedit.msc” (no quotes). This will start the group policy editor for the local machine. I guess my next question is.......Is there a network admin that has several offices w/ mixed OS and you are able to connect to any computer on any domain......or are we all just sitting around looking at each other shurgging our shoulders.....????????????

Networking problem and connecting to Windows 2000 server
Ok.....something worked and I suspect it was the LLTD fix. Now on my pc when
i go to map a network drive I'm seeing all the other pcs on the net.....but i still can't see the other server in the other office....It is a Windows 2000 Server....I'm going to start looking into what it requires on that end for Vista to see it......
