drscouse Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 This is really annoying and Ive spent the past few hours looking for a solution, tried several, but I still cant see my other XP computers on my network...I have 2 XPSP" pc's in the same workgroupDisabled Firewalls on bothEnabled Netbios over TCPIPFile & Printer sharing enabledLink Layer Topology Discovery Responder installedDHCP is enabled on both, issued from my router...IPCONFIG /all shows unknown node typeIve tried this:http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;903267I can ping everything, and even map drives.. but the only pc that shows up when I view network computers is the PC I am using...I always remeber this sometimes being a bit tricky, for some strange reason,but now It seems impossible.!!Its driving me mad!!!The only thing I can find which may help, is to install Netbeui, but I dont remember ever having to do this before...

submix8c Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 User-ID-A and User-ID-B must be defined on both PC's.User-ID-A signs onto PC-A, user-ID-B signs onto PC-B.This may not be the answer you need. I don't use a router but instead use -NIC-1 on PC-A connected to InternetNIC-2 on PC-A connected to WorkGroup "device"NIC-1 on PC-B connected to Workgroup "device" (above two could have been a simple crossover cable, eliminating the "device")Firewall allows IP 192.168.x.y on bothBoth have IntraConnectiion and InternetConnection (via PC-A)A single folder on both shared ("Shared Documents" usually)But you probably already knew all this...
