OK, I know we've covered this, but I forgot. I know it has something to do
with "new security" stuff, but, my 1 XP machine will not let my W2K
machines open/see its' "shared" resources. Mostly I now get "gxp is not
present" when I try to open the XP shares.
All machines have current "TheHostsFile."
All machines have new/current "lmhost" file.
Is XP not reading the now lmhost file?
What is the trick?
The W2K machines share fine amongst themselves.
And, if I am ON the XP machine, I can open/use any of my W2K shares.
It seems to be all 1-way.......
What is the magic switch in XP to make it play nice on a W2K LAN?
I have not gone to the machine yet, but when I do........
No, I will not upgrade my W2Ksp4 clients to XP.
No, I have no plan to elevate my W2Kserver to a DC (yet).
Yes, now that I have moved my MWO, the dsl connection is 24/7 w/o
drop-outs for morning coffee! Small steps forward! Have pix as soon as
I can find somewhere to share the pix for your giggles!!!
Best,
Duncan
