When I view "Network Neightborhood" or "My Network Places" under Windows, a list of computers show up. How can I tell, under the various versions of Windows, which ones are being accessed via NetBUI and which ones are being accessed via TCP/IP? It seems like this ought to be simple (e.g.,...

The following is strange, at least to me. I have three PCs (XP SP2, W98SE, & W98) wired together to a hub. I recently had to "repair" W98SE (reinstall from the original CD without reformatting the drive). At the moment, I get full access to *all* 3 computers from my XP SP2 and W98 machines -...

Hi, I have a WIN98 (Gold?) PIII 233Mhz. DELL Inspiron 3500 laptop I'm trying to resurrect. The network setup area (Control Panel) must have a zillion entries in it -- well, OK, about 20 -- from TWAIN to AOL adapter to D-LINK wired Network Card PCMCIA (DFE-690TXD) to you-name-it. Because I...

This probably has been answered but here goes again. Trying to fix tonight. Have three systems here at office, 1x XP(he) and 2x 98se. All three running through a router to net and an XP server. The XP can see both 98se fine but the two 98se can't see the XP. The two 98se's can see each other...
