{RESOLVED}Cannot access the network.

[MolsonMan007]

For some reason I can't get my network working properly. I had it up and running before and I can't think of what is wrong this time. Also, I checked the connection between the two computers, it is connected properly and the three little lights (10/100, Half/Full, LN/Act) are all on.

Here are my TCP/IP settings...

BINDINGS
Client for Microsoft Net. is checked.

ADVANCED
Property = allow binding; Value = No

NETBIOS
Blank

DNS CONFIG
disabled

GATEWAY
blank

WINS CONFIG
disabled

IP ADDRESS
Desktop 192.168.1.1 (Both IP and Subnet)
Laptop 192.168.1.2 (Both IP and Subnet)

I also tried 192.168.100.*

The problem is when I double click on "Entire Network" in Network Neighborhood I get the message:

'Unable to browse the network.
The network is not accessible.....'

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx

Oh, by the way. both computers are running under Windows 98.

Thanx Brian.

erase me

 

[MolsonMan007]

Hmmmm. I thought that would have worked but it hasn't appeared to have done anything.

Work group names exactly the same

file and print sharing installed

 

[MolsonMan007]

That's the ticket Brian. My file sharing was not checked off. I made sure it worked this time and allready backed up my files. So you can whip that 'resolved' tag back up there.

Thanx a lot....

MolsonMan.

Glad it's working, hopefully I can leave the resolved on it this time, I think you are the only one I have to remove the resolved from on a consistant basis
