I am running p2p network over Win98 using tcp/ip and netbui, with a cross over cable. My static ip addresses are set correctly. When I loose my conection (everytime I reboot, etc) to the network I have to rename one or both of my PCs to regain access just a simple reboot won't fix it. Whats Up?
Hi !
1. Check if your workgroup name is the same in both computer.
(delete it and write it again)
2. create a batch file, (I usually call it LOGIN.BAT)
with the line:
NET USE x: \\server\c /YES
its will remap your sharing drives
x: - name of drive in "My Computer".
server - the remote pc.
c - name of shared drive/folder
dont forget /YES switch ...
That's might do it but, to be on the safe side, create lmhosts files on each machine so that they'll always know who each other is. With two machines on a LAN is real easy to do.Quote:

Create a file with the name "lmhosts" and stick it in your windows (or windows\system) directory.
edit the file so it looks like this:
x.x.x.x machinename
where x.x.x.x is your IP. you can place a tab or a space between the IP and machine name.. doesn't matter.
Good Luck
