Can not access other computor
I can see other computor when I go to view workgroup but get message netwoork
path not found. Other computer (wireless) has access to internet but cannot find other computor either. How do I get them to see each other? Bob |

Re: Can not access other computor
Do you receive system error if using net view command, for example net view

Re: Can not access other computor
Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared.

Re: Can not access other computor
Not sure what you mean, can you explain net view command?

Re: Can not access other computor
Also here is what else is happening. The laptop sees the main computor and
when I go to view workgroup computors on the laptop everything is there to share but not the other way ( main to laptop) "Robert L.

Re: Can not access other computor
Make sure no firewall or security software blocks to access the main
computer. Also on the main pc, run command prompt. Type ipconfig to find the ip address. On the laptop do net view \\mainpcipaddress. You may receive a system error.
