My Network Places share no accessable

[techcoor]

I get the following dialog window when the computer containing the share is
turned off or the share was deleted on the neighboring the computer.

\\P933III\tmp is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you
have access permissions.

The network path was not found.

Windows XP SP2 My Network Places doesn't show the actual shares but rather
the share existed at some point in time.

Is there a way to force Windows XP to show the actual shares available on
the network.

Windows XP, as with most other Windows editions, will indeed show the actual
shares, when the computers are setup properly.

You, most likely, have a NetBT setting or personal firewall, problem on one or
more computers.

You can probably diagnose the problem, using logs from "browstat status",
"ipconfig /all", "net config server", and "net config workstation", from each
computer. Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions
precisely (download browstat!):

this posting and continue there.

Fine. I copied my reply above, to the other thread, after your empty reply
