I have a problem with an XP machine and a Win2K machine on a LAN .
They can ping each other by IP address OK and they can each access the
internet OK.
XP can ping Win2K by computer name, but Win2K can not ping XP by name.
They can open each other's shares if opened by IP address : "RUN"
\\192.168.0.100\myshare
XP can open Win2K's shares by name : "RUN" \\Win2KName\myshare but Win2K
can not open XP this way (The network path was not found)
XP can not see Win2K in my network places
Win2K can see XP's workgroup, but can not open it (Workgroup is not
accessible - The network path was not found)
DHCP node type is mixed on both machines
I have run out of ideas, can anyone suggest how to get these machines to see
each other?
Many thanks for any help
