Checked everything "suggested" and still not sure what to do.
Since I have one 98se system connecting to all systems, except the
other98se, I thought it might be best to work on one problem/system at a
time.
The only problem I'm having with wabash3 (98se that does connect) is when I
go into NN and click on wabash1 (my xp machine) I get the following error
msg.
"//wabash1 is not accessible.
The computer or sharename could not be found. make sure you typed it
correctly, and try again."
Also noticed when I click on one of the other machine, office01, I get the
following screen msg;
Enter network password
you must supply a password to make this connect.
Resourse: \\office01\ipc$
password:
(Not worried about getting into other systems, office1,2,3,server. Trying to
connect my systems wabash1,2,3.)
I can get into/open other computers(office02,03 and server) with no problem.
