I receive the error when connecting from my W2K to another in order to "manage" it. I've already checked that 'file and printer' sharing is activated on both W2K machines.

Computer \\computername.domain.org cannot be managed. The network path was not found. Choose 'Connect to another computer' from the Action menu to manage a different computer.

How do I resolve this?

Thank you

sounds like you have name resolution problems, check to make sure your DNS settings are correct . .

you can also bypass name resolution problems by typing the IP adress of the PC you're trying to connect to rather than its machine name .see if this works

thirdly, if the remote registry service is not started or disabled, you can expect this type of behavior
