Networking problems
I'm totaly stuck.
I have 2 PCs @ home. One running W2k with Internet connection and printer, the other running WinXP wanting to access printer and Internet.
So, I did a conection sharing (the one which is build into W2k) and it works perfectly fine.
WinXP even installed the Printer without asking me a thing.
That was yesterday...
Today I can't access the W2k machine at all - internet still works. I was able to see it in the workgroup the other day - today its gone...
What is going wrong here?
Any help would be appreciated!!!!!

best regards
Sheriff

What happens if you request \\win2k (where win2k is name of your gateway) from my computer or ie? You still are able to surf the net, right?

OK, I figured what was wrong here.
My wife (the W2k machine) installed a firewall (ZoneAlarm) and only today asked me what this netbios is the firewall blocks all the time...figure!
After that I was able to see that my PC for some weird reason still was in the workgroup called "workgroup" (I swear I changed that a million times!)
What can I say, now everything works fine!

Thank you anyway!

sorry for the trouble and
best regards
Sheriff
