It is a GREAT concept IF you know what you are looking for. Merely firing up Netmon/Ethereal and such will not be productive without the necessary capabilities to discern and interpret the traffic. I know, because I was a victim. Took me a 3-hour call and escalations to MS before I could resolve a whacky (OK, unique) problem where Exchange insisted on doing NetBIOS name calls when I expected it to do FQDN during a migration project. RASDIAG saved my life, thanks to the MS dude. So, is there any interest in putting together something along the line of "Capturing and Interpreting Network Traffic 101"? I volunteer to be an active participant in the project. I think this will help many of our audience on this list and beyond.

Filter on the names / IPs of the two machines involved, just to reduce the noise to just the important bits. I suspect this will most likely uncover the problem much quicker than anything else you could likely do. -rtk ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cothern Jeff D.

Both machines are in the same domain. A Domain admin on one XP machine is trying to offer assistance to another XP machine. I put the machine name in and hit connect and it errors out saying connection failed. Cannot find any information in the event log. I am able to connect to \\machinename\C$ <file:///\\machinename\C$> so definitely have admin rights. Anyone have any other ideas not put into the above KB article?
