Now don't laugh, but we have one domain controller and 3
pc's. Not exactly a big network. I am using static IP and
no DNS. They can ping each other fine. They are all
Windows 2000 pc's. I did get my problem fixed though, by
downloading "ntrights.exe" from the 2003 Rsource Kit and
then running it with a few command switches. I still have
some other "non-critical" bugs to fix. I am going to check
on the priviledges that you mentioned earlier. I also can
not "browse" the 3 pc's from the server. The pc's can see
each other fine, and they see the server fine, but not the
other way. The pc's authenticate fine and server shares
works great. It just does not go the other way. I am
thinking I need to configure DNS. I am new at this so I am
still in the learning curve. Thanks again for the help. I
have so much to learn.
