I searched the KB but came up short. I recently purchased
a Dell 5150 laptop with XP Pro for an OS. I have a network
in my home office and at my office that is Win2000 based.
I cannot seem to get the machines to connect but I can see
the drives/shares. The problem is that the connection
fails when I select the share. Not sure what the issue is
(maybe that XP does not support Netbui???) but I would
appreciate any assistance. Please email me at the address
below.
Thanx

we need more information to help. do you use tcp/ip or netbuie? if it is
tcp/ip, can you ping each other? check the tcp/ip settings or post ipconfig
/all here.
