Chuck -- I'm struggling with precisely the same problem as the fellow that
originally posted. Laptop in a domain at work, home system in a workgroup.
Both WinXP Pro. I tried using a local account on the laptop, and still can't
see my workgroup machine (or any of the shares). Can't find it with the
Search feature.
I've disabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP on both machines, installed the
IPX/NetBIOS protocol, checked the bindings to ensure that both File and
Print Sharing and Client for Microsoft Networks is bound to IPX and NOT
TCP/IP, reboot both machines, still no success.
Read further based on some pointers in this newsgroup via MSDN knowlege base
articles. Modified the registry on both machines to set the NodeType to
Broadcast, rebooted, still no success.
Any more ideas? I have a workaround for file transfers using Remote Desktop
with the local resources mapped. Apparently, the Terminal Services bindings
for File and Print Sharing work. However, this is an awkward and not
completely flexible solution.
I'm getting quite frustrated...
Dave
