Hello,

Try checking  to see if the patch cable had gone bad. Also, try switching
the cable with a different port on the hub, that particular port could be
going bad.  Check to see if file and printer sharing are indeed check in the
Network Control Panel, you may have installed it, but for got to enable and
share your drives!

> Hi gang,

laptop,
> one a Dell PC and the third a Gateway PC.  The client says that the
network

> any drives shared on the network.  The client remapped the drives and
things

> The laptop and Gateway can see each other in their respective Network

two
> computers and attach drives, but cannot see itself in its own Network
> Neighborhood.  I have never heard of this situation.
> The client claims that he has uninstalled Windows networking on the Dell
and

> in the Dell.  He has both NETBUI and TCP/IP protocol stacks loaded in all
> three computers and all have drives available for sharing (Windows
