From: Dr. Dave Dr. on 31 Dec 2009 16:40 Configured a network of three computers using windows xp network wizard. Two of the computers can see shared files on the third computer. However, one of the network computers cannot see the shared files on the other two computers. Using ping in the command window confirms that all computers are connected to each other. However, when I run ipconfig/all in the command window, I see that for two of the computers, the DNS suffix Search List is the name of the workgroup. The DNS suffix search list for the third computer is the name of another network that is connected (when enabled) by a VPN client. How do I fix this problem so that all of the network computers can see the shared files on the other network computers?

This is a good questing. I assume we can fix this issue by enabling NetBIOS over TCP/IP. If not, please post the results of ipconfig all here. -- Bob Lin, Microsoft-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Dr. Dave" <Dr. Dave(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E0C8C94E-3256-4731-8A4C-57FE307C21F6(a)microsoft.com... > Configured a network of three computers using windows xp network wizard. > Two > of the computers can see shared files on the third computer.
