What is canonical process to debug LAN workgroup XP connections
Hi:
Having spent an inordinate amount of time over the years, and most recently in the past two days, trying to understand and diagnose connectivity issues in a mixed LAN workgroup with XP, Win2000, Win2003 Server, Windows 98, etc workstations, in which the general advice is to "check permissions" or "refer to your network administrator", my questions a Is there a document and software floating around somewhere that describes the steps to diagnose shared drive connectivity issues in a mixed workgroup environment? In particular, is there a) a standard to set the workgroup workstations to a known base-line condition, b) a tutorial walking through all the lower to higher level connections, such as using net view, net use etc to explore permissions a the lowest level, then moving up to the Windows level, and c) is there software that will do this analysis for you as opposed to having to do it manually?. Thank you in advance for your help. -- Roy Zider |
