My computer is using Win98 SE and the second computer is using Win98.
Both systems have all available Windows updates installed. We are
connected together and to the internet via the Netgear RP 114 router
and a cable modem.

As far as I can determine, I have configured the two computers
identically. Both can access the internet. The other computer can
"see" my computer and can access both my files and my printer. But I
cannot see the second computer. When I click on Network Neighborhood,
I see the globe that says "Entire Network." When I double-click on
the icon, I receive this message: "Unable to browse the network. The
network is not accessible."

We both have File and Print Sharing enabled. We both have NetBEUI and
TCP/IP installed. Etc.

But my daughter can access my computer and I cannot access hers. Any
ideas? TIA

Has she shared any files? You really don't need NetBEUI.
Is Client for Microsoft Networks the logon for her machine?

File sharing is enabled on her computer, and I set the properties on
her hard drive to allowing sharing. But I still can't "see" my
daughter's computer.

We have Windows Logon enabled on both computers.

I just solved a similar problem today, but I'm using 98se and XP. I
had to change the name of the workgroup to match the ISP domain. I
also had to disable the firewalls on my machines. Especially the one
on the XP machine. It took me 3 days to find some good info. Check out
this link. Hope it helps you.

Well, I appear to have fixed my problem, sort've. A friend suggested
that, for some reason, my computer was not logging on to the network
at bootup. So he had me "Log off" on the Start Menu. And by doing
this my computer logged on!

Now I have no idea why my computer does not log on when booting up. I
have tried both the Windows Logon and the Client for Microsoft Windows
logon. No difference. I still have to click on the log off on the
start menu in order to log on to the network.

Any ideas?

Delete the autologon value in the registry under

HKLM/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/network/realmodenet



Jim.

I've got a similar problem. Just two machines with a cross over cable. A
can see B but B can't see a. Both can ping each other in DOS. Does anyone
know what the link is between Neighbourhood Network and TCP/IP. An other
curious thing is that both machines will accept any password at network
login (or maybe they just fail and carry on). The message I had at set up
was that entering no password would stop the login dialogue box in future -
it did not.

Regards

Stephen

The same problem! Two machines with cross over cable with ICS. The internet
connection is on machine A. B can see A. A can´t see B. ICS works. Can ping
each other. It´s driving me crazy. Please help!!

I've got a feeling the answer is in the registry settings - does anyone know
which ones affect the network?

I've fixed my machines! The answer is in the logon. If you type "net view"
in DOS you will see the other computers if it is logged on, if it's not it
will tell you. The way to log on (in true Microsoft style) is to go Start -
logoff this will promt a network login dialogue box, then it all works.

Hope this helps you too.
