Re: Cant browse in Network Places

thanks for the reply, but everything is solved now :). the problem was that Netbios over TCP/IP was disabled. from what i gatherd My Network places is available because the computer browser service builds it. It is a hold over from the days of NT using NetBIOS names and LAN broadcasts. So i'm guessing that network places builds its list from netbios broadcasts.everything is good to go now. however, i'm trying to enable netbios over tcp/ip in the dhcp server options, but i cant seem to get it. would you happen to know how to do that? i would like it so that all my clients are automaticaly configured with netbios over tcpip from dhcp

use net share command to check local sharing and use net view \\remotehost command to check the remote computer sharing. post back with any errors.

I setup a Windows 2003 server Domain and have only 1 workstation joined to
the domain. the problem that i'm having is that i cant see both pc's from my
network places. when i click on entire network/microsoft netork/ i can see
my domain. When i click in the domain, it doesnt show any pc's. file and
print sharing is enabled. does anybody know what it could be? does group
policy have an option to disable this type of browsing?
