Hello, I have 2 computers runing Win Xp, one is a celeron 1.0 gig, and an Athlon 700, I have connected them both to a small hub,this is the first time I implement a NT runing win xp.
Because both computers are connected to the hub, it is a peer-to-peer NT correct? I have specify a workgroup call MDL3 on each computer, now from my network places if i click on veiw workgroup computers I’m supossed to see MDL1 and MDL2 (workstations)under workgroup MDL3 m’ I correct?
now on my network places onMDL1 (workstation), I can only see MDL1 under MDL3 (worgroup),MDL2 is not showing.
Ok on MDL2 (workstation)I can only see MDL2 under MDL3 (workgroup)m I not supossed to see both workstations under workgoup MDL3 from both workstations???
I sharing entire HDD on both workstations, I’m implementing the netbui compatible protocol that comes with XP,I wont need it but tcp/ip is there, so is client for MS networks,file and priters shring for MS networks,NWLink NetBIOS.
Is there a sequence to follow when turning computers on or off?
one more thing, I’m not being prompted for password when I restart the pc,m I not supossed to be promted to log into the NT?
Can someone help me figure it out, I got lost i dont know what else to do!!
perhaps a step by step instruction from the begining will help me see where I went wrong!
Thanks guys again!
