I had problems so here is what I did to network win XP and win 2K

[superHARD]

NetBEUI has to be installed!

I read forums, I read how to's, I could not make my win2K or XP box's see each other. I could ftp into them but that was it. Then one day I installed NetBeui and Vallah network!

Just sharing so if someone searches with same problem this might help them.

This might have been an id 10 t error but this still might help someone else.

Generally installing netbeui takes care of most browsing problems.

Glad you got it going!

I've been using and recommending NETBEUI for years. It really ticks me off that Microsoft removed it from an easy install for XP, yet didn't address the pathetic browsing capability of their workgroup browser. I'll bet that 90% of the people reading this can open up event viewer and see all sorts of warnings about browser election failures.
