Joe is just being .... well .... Joe. I don't think it's so much because he can't "think" of what to present as it is deciding on which of the numerous things he CAN present he should present. Something tells me, though, that if you can get Dean over to DEC (and make sure he brings his laptop), Joe will lose all his resistance. Dean with a Laptop full of hidden Windows gems is irresistible. Sincerely,

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.
