XP & 2K on home network

Match · #1 11-21-2003, 12:40 PM

I have a small home network that I have set up. My 2 desktops run XP Pro and I have a laptop running 2K Pro. The XP machines are running great and see each other. However, my 2K laptop, can see all of the workgroup computers, but I get this error...

XXXX is not accessible, the network path was not found. I am not running Netbeui. There seems to be alot of division over running it. I am not accessing the internet with this network... Thanks...

Try running NETBUI, it may help.
