We have a small LAN at work consisting of workstations running W2K Pro. We recently got 2 new Dell systems that are running WinXP and I don't want to install W2K on the new systems (until it's a last resort).
The problem I have is I can't get the WinXP systems to see a particular W2K workstation (and vice versa). I can view and share drives between the other W2K systems and the new XP systems with no problems.
We are running with the TCP/IP and NetBEUI protocols installed and static IP addresses (192.168.1.xxx) are assigned to each computer.
So far, this is what I have checked and verified:
(1) Each system is being logged in as the Administrator (same password on each system)
(2) I can ping between each W2K and XP system and get responses.
(3) All systems are on the same workgroup
I have searched for solutions with no luck.
Any suggestions?
