Networking

[hmm1]

hi

I have a problem with networking
one of the computer of network neighborhood was installed and running ok.

due to some unknown reason, other computer of the network do
not appears in one of the computer of network.
however this computer do appears on the other computer of the network.

checked neighborhood properties, following exist.

1) network client
2) network adapter
3) network protocol
===
ex; 1) client for ms network
2) 3Com etherlink III ISA (3C 509/3c 509n) in ISA mode
3) TCP/IP
4) file and printer printer sharing of ms network
also checked connected to the correct group.

checked config of all above seems ok

still other computer of network do not appears.
anyone please advise

many thanks

Make sure that both computers are on the same work group. also, how do you have the network setup? is it peer to peer (hooked directly to each other) or with a hub? Also check your TCP/IP settings, and make sure they both have the same default gateway, and subnet mask.

You are saying?

One of of your networked computers had been working fine.

Questions - Now this computer does what:

Can only see some (or none) of the other computers in network neighbourhood?

Can only be seen by some (all or none) of the other computers?

How many computers are involved and what O/S is running on each?

Try changing the hub port that your troubled PC is connected to. Present port may only be working in one direction?

On troubled PC do you have more than one network protocol setup? If so, remove all protocols other than TCP/IP.

Can the other computers still see your troubled PC? If not, there is something wrong in the troubled PC's TCP/IP setup.
