In my two computer network, I cannot reach one of the=20
computers from the other computer. Who can you help me ?

I have a network concisting of :
=B7 a portable computer running Windows 98 SE=20
4.10.2222A, name: DELL
=B7 a desktop computer running Windows XP=20
Professional version 5.1 Build 2600 (version 2002 SP 1),=20
name: geertp4

The network adapters of the computers are connected by a=20
crossed UTP cable.
DELL has a 3Com Megahertz 10/100 LAN Cardbus PC Card,=20
ethernet. I configuerd the TCP/IP settings of the adapter=20
to automatically obtain a IP adress. Geertp4 has a=20
onboard Intel PRO/100 VE network adapater. TCP/IP is set=20
up to use IP adres 192.168.0.1, subnetmask 255.255.255.0.

I have run the XP Network Setup Wizard on both computers.=20
Geertp4 is the host that should share its internet=20
connection. DELL is the client. Both use the workgroup=20
WAAGEN.

After first starting up geertp4 and then dell the result=20
is:

OK.

On geertp4:
A ping to 192.168.0.1 works OK, a ping to 192.168.0.125=20
result in time out, also after ping -w10000.

From what I can see, everything here looks OK. The problems you are
reporting sound like they are DNS specific since you can se e folders and
shares by IP address of the server.

From "geertp4", can you do \\192.168.0.125 and see the shares?

The only thing I can think to do is opening a command box on the Dell (and
possibly "geertp4") and typing

Ipconfig /flushdns a

And see if that helps.
