Default Problem Networking Win2000 Computers

I can get my two Win2000Prof computer talking to each other via

You should have checked the activity of this newsgroup
(microsoft.public.win98.networking) first before posting a question to
it.

You would have seen it hasn't had any activity for months - if not
years.

I have added a more active win-98 group
(microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion) to my reply.

I'm guessing that you've probably multi-posted your question to one or
more win-2k groups (but I won't bother to check on that).

I had one 2000Prof and one 98SE networked and both worked fine.
Recently I installed 2000Prof on the 98SE and now cannot get them to
communicate.

Both can see the other computer, but neither one can access the other.


Can either computer ping the other?

Can both computers surf the web?

If the answer to both questions is yes, then it's a sharing /
permissions thing going on.

Could also be a protocal-binding issue.
