xp & win95
Xp does not officially work with Windows 95 on a network, although I was
able to get limited networking capabilities (printing and accessing files) every now and then (it was intermittent) but I could not tell you how I did it (actually I did nothing but it would occasionally work anyway). Hope this helps Matthew Shaw "ted medin" wrote in message ... Had a peer to peer network between win95 & me. Upgraded me to xp & now am unable to network. Any ideas?

Greetings --
On the WinXP PC, create local user account(s), with password(s), that have the desired access privileges to the desired shares. Log on to the other PCs using those account(s), and you will be able to access the designated shares, provided your network is configured properly. There's a lot of useful, easy-to-follow information in WinXP's Help & Support files, and he Home Networking http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/h...et/default.asp Networking Information http://www.onecomputerguy.com/networking.htm PracticallyNetworked Home http://www.practicallynetworked.com/index.htm Steve Winograd's Networking FAQ http://sfwinograd.home.attbi.com/faq.htm Bruce Chambers Help us help you: http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html ---- You can have peace.

Apparently there is a patch file for 95 that you need for it to talk to XP .
I read it in the "how to network " in XP. "ted medin" wrote in message ... Had a peer to peer network between win95 & me. Upgraded me to xp & now am unable to network. Any ideas?

You need to install TCP/IP on your Win 95 machine to work correctly with XP as MS is dropping support for Netbeui. Open the Network Control Panel, click Add, Protocol and add TCP/IP and then set an IP address e.g. 192.168. 0.1 and 192.168.0.2 for XP PC and use 255.255.255.0 for Mask.
