Re: Explorer does not recognize hosts file

Hi,
I'm able to ping the machine from the commandline, no problems.
I'm also able to see the shares when I use the IP address in the
Explorer.
NetBios over TCP/IC is enabled.
I'm running Windows XP SP1 on all machines.

The entry in the hosts file is the other way around. First comes the IP
address then the name. That should be correct, shouldn't it ?

Regards,
Markus
