nlite network help

**BikeBoy24** · 08-21-2005, 10:55 PM

Sorry if this has been covered in a previous post. I just finished my nlite install. Everything is working perfectly, except for connecting to shared network drives. Normally, I can just access the drive by:

"\\computername\folder"

This doesn't work.

Also, I cannot change my workgroup name. It is greyed out. If I go to "my network places", and click on "view workgroup computers" I hear the windows "beep", and nothing happens.

Is there a service that I missed that would cause this? Thanks!

do you have the computer browser service installed and running?

I'll have to double check. Is that in services?

yes, it's called computer browser services.

I remembered I still able to use \\computer after I disable browser service.

I don't even have that service for some reason. It's probably some setting I checked off in nlite.

I don't think that would affect my ability to change workgroups would it?
