I am running Windows XP pro on 2 different computers. I have a router for
internet connection for both computers. Th einternet connection seems to work
fine.
Computer A can "see" Computer B (and the shared drives), but Computer B can
not see Computer A.
The computers use to both "see" each other fine and Computer B could print
on Computer A's Local Printers. Computer B can no longer see other computer
and shared printer.
I have tried to run the Network wizard. Created a new Workgroup even, using
the default MShome name. I have also changed the Computer names. Computer A
can still "see" and read from computer B, but know on computer A I have
redundent shared drives shown from both computers under network places, due
to the re-naming.
For example, under "My Network Places", is reported drive "D Computer
Discription (Old Computer Name)" and "D Computer Discription (New Computer
Name). Of course the drive with the Old name is not accessable, but the drive
associated with the new name is accessable. So having the "extra" drives
showing on Computer A is not a terrible problem, at least I can file share
from computer B.
I did run a "netsh" command on Computer B to open the port. This did allow
bme to at least "see" the Computer A but not access it.
