Win 95

Hi,
Also you must have different names for computers and you don't say nothing about used protocols.
If you use TCP/IP check IP assigment (use "ipconfig" or "winipcfg"). Ping in both direction.
Check/replace drivers for NIC or change NIC.
Check network connection.

Why use a workgroup configuration if you have 5 servers? Or if they are not server OS. Make sure you are all on the same subnet mask. Try to ping the computer ip address and the computer name. Sometimes win95 will not show up in network neighbourhood, try mapping a network drive to one of the servers. If you can ping and map a network drive then dont worry about the fact that it is not showing up in network neighbourhood.

If the win95 box is not sharing something to the network it will not appear in network neighborhood since that functions as a locator for network resources. Check to make sure Microsoft Networks is installed and active on your win95 box. Otherwisewhat you are reporting is normal activity.
There is the posibility that the browse master is setup using a different protocol than the win95 machine is using. The protocol of importance is the FIRST BOUND protocol. The browse masters only work onthe first bound protocol on their NIC. If the first bound protocol on the win95 machine is not the same as that on the browse master machine then it will never appear in its browser listing for network neighborhood. So, two areas to look into. Good Luck.

Get the IP Address of the Win95 machine and try to Ping the machine's IP from Win2k/NT machines. IP Address of your Win95 machine and the rest of your machine must be in the same subnets since you have only one workgroup. If you got a reply, there's no problem on your network setup, you just need to check the protocols installed. Is TCP/IP protocol only installed? Try to add the IPX/SPX protocol in your Win95 machine network configuration. Hope this works for your problem.
Good Luck.
