Try "net view".

Try creating a .cmd file:

#######
net view
@pause
#######

copy and paste the two lines inside the ####### into Notepad.
Save the file as "netview.cmd", by entering "netview.cmd" for file name, and
selecting "all files" for Save as type:.
Copy the new file to your desktop, or create then copy a shortcut, to the file,
to your desktop.

Cheers,
Chuck

Like the output in a text file? Try:

#######
net view >c:\netview.txt
notepad c:\netview.txt
#######

Probably, you do not want a command line solution. Try:

Open My Network Places, drill down until you see the workgroup icon, right
click on it and select Create Shortcut - a window will pop up asking whether
you want to put it on the Desktop.

Is that what you were after?

[net helper]

If you are trying this over the internet your ISP may be the problem.

Try this " net view \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" sub "X" for the IP adrress for the
computer you are trying to view. Of course this is command line only.

P.S.
CMD = NET HELP view | MORE
