Of course all of these wouldn't matter if both machines are not in the same subnet. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rodney Kanno" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, August 25, 2002 4:02 PM Subject: [luau] OT: windows 2000 networking > I have two machines running windows 2000 and I am having problems getting the > two machines to see each other.
