We are adding a computer to our Windows 2000 network. Have tried to map a

drive but the new computer does not see the network computer.

What am I missing???

You need to give us more information. Is this on a domain or on a peer

network? Can the new machine ping the the "network computer"? What

kind of error messages are you getting? Not being able to see the other

machines in the "My Network Places" is often a NetBIOS problem. With

the scant information that you gave us we can only guess and offer

common advice, give us more information.

 

For starters when you troubleshoot network problems make sure that

firewalls are not causing the problems, while you trouble shoot this

make absolutely sure that firewalls are out of the picture, temporarily

disable them if need be.
