MARK

Ok here is my problem. I have two computers on is
located at my main office site and the other is at a
diffrent location. We are connected to each other with a
T1 PPP.

I have shares on both computers and from the computer at
my diffent location I can type the IP of my main location
server in search for computers and bam the computer shows
up. Now when I reverse the task I get an error that says
computer can not be found. but I can ping it just fine
from a command prompt.

Please help

It sounds like you don't have any common name resolution in place. If you
don't have anything centralized, then you'll probably need to make some
LMHOSTS files to put in place. Here is a q-article to get you going.
