Network path not foundresource. Contact Admin etc… Network path was not found. I have 4 computers in a home networked. 1-3 are decktops hard wired to Lynksys wireless G router and a 4 is laptop using wireless. All 4 computers are using Windows XP Pro and are assigned to the same workgroup. My problem is that Computer 1 can access computers 2-4 through my computer network and can also be accessed through remote desktop. Computers 2-4 cannot connect to Computer 1. My problem started with Computer 2. Got a corrupted config/system file and had to reinstall Windows. I had a similar problem with Computer 2. It’s my backup computer and my scheduled backups would not start. I search this forum and a MVP gave some one else with similar problems directions to go to the properties on my Local Area Connection and enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. Then restart the Computer Browser Service. Worked great! All my backups went fine. Then I started have problems with Computer 3-4 getting connected to the internet and the using remote desktop from Computer 4 (Wireless) to Computer 3. So…repeated the above suggestion to Computers 3-4 and they are now again part of the network working like they use to work. Now I can’t get Computer 1 to be recognized by Computers 3-4 with the above statement as a reason. I have since re-created the LAN connection on Computer 1 I have set the NetBIOS with the same settings. I have checked all computer names (which haven’t changed for a couple of years), and have the same WORKGROUP name. I have established my router is working properly in Device Manager (also all the other computers are doing great on the router) and that all my pertinent files are marked as shared. I am all out of ideas. Please suggestions are welcomed. On Wed, 23 Aug 2006 17:16:01 -0700, Skip Bisconer

There are several other possibilities too, and any might be the cause of your problem. Read this article with an open mind. <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/10/irregularities-in-workgroup-visibility.html> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/10/irregularities-in-workgroup-visibility.html You could look at "browstat status", "ipconfig /all", "net config server", and "net config workstation", from computer 1, and from 2 others, and diagnose the problem. Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions precisely (download browstat!): <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/troubleshooting-network-neighborhood.html#AskingForHelp> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/troubleshooting-network-neighborhood.html#AskingForHelp -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience. My email is AT DOT actual address pchuck mvps org. I solved the problem by doing a system restore to yesterday. Things are
working correctly now. Thanks for your advice. Show quoteHide quote "Skip Bisconer" wrote: > Computer 1 is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this > resource.
