Virus? Service Pack4?
Hey rick -
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 - lemme know!
