Working on a small (3 workstation) peer-to-peer network. Previously, they
were using some kind of satellite ISP (DirecWay), which we removed today and
replaced with a cable modem/Linksys router. Before, we used DHCP.
After removing the Direcway software, I have been able to map network drives
ONLY by using the share's static IP address (thus, we're no longer using
DHCP). So, to map driver letter f:, before I could use:
NET USE F: \\BACKOFFICE\C /PERSISTENT:YES
Now, it is necessary to use:
NET USE F: \\192.168.1.11\C /PERSISTENT:YES
It works fine, but is obviously not ideal.
Anyone have any idea why, suddenly, we can't use the computer names across
this network?
TIA
