Windows Dial Up Service ???

[curlywink]

Hi, not much VB related but can anybody help me.


I have 2 PC's w/c I'm trying to connect by Dial up connection. The main PC is configured as Dial up server, the problem is once connected, I can't find/locate the other PC.


Any suggestions/comments much appreciated. Tnx in advance...

Hello,

You might want to look at your TCP/IP settings. Make sure both PCs use the same network identication and subnetmask. Most commonly used IP addresses are:
IP Address: 192.168.0.1 through 192.168.0.255
If you use these you should give both PCs the subnetmask 255.255.255.0

I hope this helps you.

Humn?, one more thing, why can't I locate it on the Network Neighborhood, still I have to find/search by computer name to locate it. Any ideas ?

Hello,

This might be in the workgroup name. You have to make sure that both computers use the same workgroup name but have unique computernames.

Succes.
