XP Pro to XP Media Center Network connectionIt worked a few weeks ago and I do not recall making any changes. A simple NET VIEW has returned a few system errors... 6118 which seems to have gone away Now I get a few different ones depending on how I issue the call... ------------- c:\>net view System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found. ------------- ---------- c:\>net view \\192.168.0.110 There are no entries in the list. ---------- The two computers are at 192.168.0.100 and 182.168.0.100 respectively. NET VIEW does work in these instances. ------- c:\>net view \\192.168.0.100 Shared resources at \\192.168.0.100 Share name Type Used as Comment ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- C_Irvs Disk F_Irvs Disk HPDeskjet540 Print HP Deskjet 5400 Series share created by Network Magic SharedDocs Disk The command completed successfully. ------------ ---------- c:\>net view \\irvs Shared resources at \\irvs Share name Type Used as Comment ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- C_Irvs Disk F_Irvs Disk HPDeskjet540 Print HP Deskjet 5400 Series share created by Network Magic SharedDocs Disk The command completed successfully. ----------- On the other system, a NET VIEW does provide the proper display, showing the names of both systems, however, a NET USE will not work there and you can't access the other system without a permission error message. Like I said, it was working before... When I researched the web, I found this machine was not allowing anonymous logins, and I changed the REGISTRY to allow this and it partially started to work. Also, with the other system OFF, all NET commands work fine? Ideas? Thanks in Advance, Irv Spalten chrome://messenger/locale/messengercompose/composeMsgs.properties:

The network path was not found. ========== So, the problem is getting NET VIEW to work. Also did an IPCONFIG /ALL on both systems. Only oddity was this line, On the XP Pro it reads "Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Unknown" and on the XP Media Center it reads "Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid". Is this a problem and how do I change it? Irv

How did you come up with 182.168.0.100 for one computer? And Jim is right - SMBs won't pass between 2 computers on different subnets. If the 2 computers are on separate subnets, then you have to figure out why any net command works. How about we look at "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" from each computer (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.

Anyway, at this time, it IS working, but I don't know why it is? Or I should say I don't know what I did to make it work... Irv

I changed network cards (I have a card and motherboard network adapter, only need one). This didn't fix it. I uninstalled and re-installed MS File and Print Sharing, this didn't fix it. I removed all the firewall rules, this didn't fix it (but I didn't expect it to as I disabled the firewall and it didn't work). I started looking as SERVICES I had shut-off, although I didn't change any recently. The only one 'questionable' was MESSENGER which I had off and that stops NET NAME from working. Looked as both machines NETWORK PROPERTIES and didn't see anything significant. All I know is that it is now working and I don't think I really changed anything? Best guess was the MS File and Printer Sharing un-install and re-install. Something might have been corrupted as once I re-did the shares it was working again?
