Error message "The server is not configured for
Transactions"

Also I have noted that I can map Network drives via "Map
Network Drive" option.
When Browsing Network Neighbourhood "Unable to Browse
Network" On clients

Internet sharing, VPN. Working fine.
If I browse Clients Via "\\Clientname" all is well
If I browse From Server "Windows 2000 Professional" via
Network Places or "\\Clientname" all is well

Any Assistance is apprieciated.

Peace

Damian-

I just ran into the same problem myself. Here is how I fixed it (it
took a bit to find this solution - I don't know if theres an easier
way, but this is pretty easy so here goes!)

1) Get a dos prompt in win2k by going start-run--->command

(type the word command into the run line)

2) Type "net share" in the prompt (without the quotes - with the
space)

3) The above command will list all of the shared folders - there needs
to be a share called IPC$ in there --- if not, this is the problem.

4)For any computers that do not have IPC$ as a share listed - type the
following command in the dos prompt "net share IPC$" - without the
quotes, with the spaces.

5)You shouldn't even need to reboot - just check all of the computers
in the network for the IPC$ share as per the above instructions and
VIOLLA! You should be golden.

I hope this works out for you!
