Re: Unable to browse the network.

Edgar,
after you deleted the desarrollo folder, do you read again "Unable to browse network"?

On your server, on myComputer, what folder do you see as shared?

Re: Unable to browse the network.

Antonio,

I am able to "Browse the network" as long as I have the Web Client service started on the Server that's acting as a client to connect to a folder called desarrollo.
As by now, I am in DEEP doubt as to where this folder is located at.
I know it is located at a W2003 Server because I can connect from an XP Client this way:
net use W: \\dstdcdev01\desarrollo
Then I run "net use" again and I see my XP client is connected to a Web Client Network resource type.

All I need is use above W2003 server the same way I'm using the XP client. that's all.
So far, I am totally unable because regardless of whether I use net use g: \\servername\desarrollo or net use r: \\serverIPaddress\desarrollo I get connected to a shared folder at ... $%&@/.├В┬б'+`MJklsd

While I was writing this down, I tried again.
Only thing I did different from previous attempts is I restarted the target server yesterday before leaving.

It is working now.
I don't have the least idea what made it work. Honestly, I haven't done anything different than before.
I don't have any problem admitting the IPs were different, or I was wrong in something, or I was doing something wrong, BUT it is not the case.

It is solved out now.
Congratulations to the weird bug that was preventing the issue from working and finally got away!
I'll keep searching just to let the forum know HOW this get solved out.

Thank you much.
Regards.

In this case you consider this trouble solved but you have to keep attention on your network.

Re: Unable to browse the network.

I do consider it solved out.
I disconnected the resource and connected it again just to make sure it wasn't a dream.
: ))
It keeps working.
But yes, I must keep an eye on my network.

Graccie.
Ciao.
