I hava a computer with Windows XP Professional. I think I
set my LAN Network corectly, but I cannot browse
Workgroup. In my LAN there is no domain , only workgroup.
I receive message : "Workgroup is not accessible. You
might not have permission to use this network resources"
I can only START---> RUN ---> \\10.120.32.100 (some IP
addrwss) .Other computers in my Workgroup do non see my
computer , but they can START---> RUN --->
\\10.120.32.200 (my IP address). I deinstalled all
protocols exept TCP/IP , enabled NETBIOS over TCP/IP, and
disabled firewals, but the problem still presist. In this
way Ican share resources , but I think something in not
OK !
Any ideas ?
 
it sounds like name resolution. however you have enabled netbios over
tcp/ip. it could be master browser issue too. can you ping each other by
name? how many computers in the network and what are the OSs?

I can ping other computers in my network by name. In my
network there is about 150 computers with win98, win
2000, winXP , winNT40 and they see each other in the
WORKGROUP exept me. The exactly message that I rceive
is :"The list of servers for this workgroup is not
currently available" . I read somewere that in this case
i have to start COMPUTER BROWSER services and I do so
but I steel receive this message and I could not brawse
the workgroup.
