All of my Brother's LAN clients appear to be: WORKGROUP=MSHOME. Is this
an OS default?
I do know how to change this value. And, all of my Brother's clients are
set to get their network specs
automatically - the MS Default (like from his router). Fine.
When he brings his laptop to my home once a year, he can somehow get to
the internet via my router, but he
can not get to any of my other LAN services/PC's//appliances. Odd. I
used to admin his laptop 'into' my LAN, but this
never really fixed everything. Confusing?
Is WORKGROUP= ? a router DHCP assigned value?
I have recently turned on my router's DHCP server, and the logic seems
to work fine.
My home LAN and all of my PC clients us WORKGROUP=WORKGROUP (probably
from back in Win2K times).
All of my PC's and appliances work just fine.
If this makes little sense, I apologize. I just had to ask.
