ok Chuck.........here are the two files for computer # 2. Computer # 1 files
are below that.
<SNIP>
OK, here's what we know.
# Both computers are on the same subnet, 192.168.1/24.
# Both computers are getting settings from same DHCP server 192.168.1.1.
# Both computers are Node Type Unknown, which is OK.
# Neither computer shows gratuitous transports.
# Both computers are on same domain (workgroup) KRANTZ NETWORK.
# Both computers acknowledge each others presence ("2 servers in domain KRANTZ
NETWORK").
# Both computers acknowledge the same master browser (Brad).
Did you check the registry setting previously referenced?
Turning Norton Personal Firewall off may not be the solution; you may have to un
install it or configure it properly. NPF does not always disable properly.

If no help yet, let's diagnose the situation. Take the following code
(everything inside the "#####"). (Please verify computer names and ip
addresses).
1. Open Notepad. Ensure that Format - Word Wrap is not checked. Highlight
then Copy the code (Ctrl-C), precisely as it is presented, and Paste (Ctrl-V)
into Notepad. Verify, and correct, names and addresses if necessary.
2. Save the Notepad file as "cdiag.cmd", as type "All Files", into the root
folder "C:\".
3. Run it by Start - Run - "c:\cdiag".
4. Wait patiently.
5. When Notepad opens up displaying c:\cdiag.txt, first check Format and
ensure that Word Wrap is NOT checked! Then, copy the entire contents (Ctrl-A
Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) into your next post.
Do this from all computers, please, with all computers powered up and online.
