I have 3 computers on a wireless network, 2 running vista ultimate and 1
running XP (SP2). The first vista pc sees all other pc's and is able to share files. The XP pc sees all other pc's and is able to share files with the 1st vista pc. The second vista pc only sees the other vista pc. It does not see the XP pc even though the XP pc sees it and the 1st vista pc sees the XP pc. I've tried a number of fixes from other threads, but I'm stumped. Any thoughts? |

When I run "net view" on the vista pc that does not show the xp pc in the
network window, it responds with the shared resources on the xp pc. Very puzzling...it can apparently see it through this command but not when the network window is open in vista. I am able to see shared resources on the vista pc from the xp pc's netwrok window. "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: Post back with the result of net view \\xpipaddress from Vista.

Bob, I'd diagnose the problem, looking at logs from "browstat status", "ipconfig /all", "net config server", and "net config workstation", from each computer. Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions precisely (download browstat!): http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/troubleshooting-network-neighborhood.html#AskingForHelp http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...#AskingForHelp -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP 2005-2007 [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
