Re: Problem Sharing some Folders

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

This response is too research-involved. How about just telling us what to
do? Here's some more interesting info. The Windows 2000 machines share
quite easily. But Windows XP machines will not share Documents and Settings
and subs therein. What do we do? You guys are the gurus. We don't want to
be gurus. But we need your help. Please tell us what to do, not where to
research.

Thanks.

I am not a newbie ... but i have couple of bug on my network

Ok here's my problem ... i can browse on my network a couple of shared
folder on every computer, but i have problem sharing some folder on my
computer like "My Documents" and "Shared Documents" and some others
..... the weird things is that i have the same settings for all, same
user policy etc ....

I don't use the simple sharing so i am on Windows Xp Pro with all
update .....

When i try to browse those particular folder they say :

" xxxxx is not accessible. You might not have permisssion to use this
network ressource. Contact blablabla - The network path was not found"

Like i said this is not basic problem .. cauze i am browsing other
folders with no problem at all .... and i have check everywhere to make
sure that everything match perfectly security & permissions ....
everything everything ....

Thanks in advanced ....

Robin,

The error "...network path was not found..." is a name resolution problem.
It's
generally caused by a firewall problem, a node type problem, or a NetBT
setting.
Read this article with an open mind.

You could look at "browstat status", "ipconfig /all", "net config server",
and
"net config workstation", from each computer, and diagnose the problem.
