Hello.
I got some problem. Im trying to share a partition on Windows Xp mashine to a couple of networked computers who run on Win98 se and Win95. The problem is : in command prompt i can ping all Ip addreses, byt if i map network driver after reboot they cant connect to the share. When i double click on network neighood i can see example : comp1 comp2 com3 server1 ( the share on the Xp mashine ) if i double click on any comp* i can browse the shares byt on server1 it says that i cant access. if I choose to click on entire network then on the workgroup and then on server1 i get the share and i can browse and work with the share. If i map network drive after the restart it doesent work so i need again to browse entire network then the workgroup and the server.
On all mashines are instaled tcp ip, ipxspxm, netbios, file and printer sharing, client for microsoft windows.

What are the share permissions on the share? Are you indeed mapping a drive or just browsing to a share? If you're mapping, then are you selecting the option to reconnect at logon?
Life's more painless for the brainless.
