Q and A
Q: Can't join the domain I have an established small network running w2k server with a single
domain. I am using a switch to connect all. A: Make sure you have good connection (green light on nic and switch?).
Cancel the "join the domain" and continue to finish the setup. Then use ping,
ipconfig and net view tools, nslookup to troubleshoot, For the details, go to
http://www27.brinkster.com/chicagotech, click windows and network tools
page. I am successfully sharing a cable internet connection for my 2 desktops & 1
laptop using a router. However, I must A: you need to have the same workgroup, protocol (TCP/IP), enable file and printer sharing and necessary permission. Whenever I try to make a new Internet connection (a VPN one), I always get
the following error message: «Unable to create the specified connection. This
can be caused by insufficient memory or not enough disk space.» A: Which OS? If it is win9x, have you logon the domain? if it is win2000,
has win2000 joined the domain? Q: No Domain Server Was Available to Validate I have windows 98 SE on my laptop, whenever i connect to the network i get
the following error message "No Domain A: Have you checked the network settings and the domain name matching your
network domain name? Q: Can ping IP but can't see win2000 File and printer sharing is enabled on all the computers. I can ping the
win98 by its IP address. From the Win98 I can see and access all other
computers on the network, but the WIN 98 does not show up on the list of
network computers on any of the computers, including the A: You just mentioned "I can ping the win98 by its IP address". But can you
ping \\computername? you may want to enable
NetBIOS over TCP/IP on win2000. For more information, go to
http://www.chicagotech.net.
check network page. I am trying to setup a network at home, I got two mechine at home on one
windows 98 and on the other hand is Windows A: Since your computers can see each and win2000 can access win98, I am assuming that you have setup the same workgroup and protocol on the both machines. The problem is permission. You may have three options: 1) use the same logon id on the both machines, 2) create a id for win9x on win 2000, 3) enable guest account in win 2000 (it is risky). 4) the w2k/xp computer name or shared name is longer than 15 characters.

Q: win2000 in domain and XP in workgroup, can they see each other I have a work laptop running Win 2000 setup to connect to domain and I
would like to share my home printer connected to my home desktop running XP
Home. I have both setup to share, but since one is ona workgroup and the other
on a domain, I cannot get both on the same workgroup. I cannot get them to see
each other or the printer. How can I share at home. I do not want to join the
domain. A: Logon a same id and password on the both machines and also you may need
to enable the guest account on win2000. I have setup networking in Win98 to logon to a NT domain. Everything is setup correctly with the domain name and the correct ip address. When I logon to the domain, I get the message no domain server available. I would appreciate any suggestions to this problem. A: Have you used ping, tracert, ipconfig, nslookup and net view to troubleshoot? Your feedback or contributions to Top FAQs series Q: Whenever getting IPC$, you have permission issue I am using a Win 2000 box for my file storage. I have 1 windows XP box, 2
win 2000 boxes & 3 win 98 boxes all on the network (it's peer to peer). I just
added the 3rd win 98 box onto the network. I can see all of the computers on
the network but I can't get in the file server. It keeps A: Whenever getting IPC$, you have permission and workgroup issues. Since you are using peer-to-peer, you need to create a local user account who will logon the win9x in win 2000. Also you may wan to try to disable simple file sharing and re-share it. Q: using net view on a win xp home box i get an access denied message when trying to map to a shared resources on a win2K box. any suggestions on if this is a permission problem etc? A: if you get error 5, it may be permission/network setting issue; if error 53, it may be name resolution issue. Q: How can my laptop connect to different domain? I use Windows XP Pro on my laptop computer, at office I've made it a member of a Windows 2000 Active Directory Domain. I would also like to be able to make it a domain member of another domain at another site. A: you may try netsh.exe and create trust relationship.
However, as a consultant, I may work on different domains every day. So the netsh is not for me. I always
create a username and password that match the domain username and password,
and then logon local computer using that username. I can access most
domain resources. A: Use safe mode to change display settings. Q: "Cannot enable shared access." "Error 2: Trying to setup ICS and get this: "Cannot enable shared access."

Q:
How can I connect to the domain network without logon domain A: I do not setup domain in my win2000 laptop. Whenever I connect to a domain, I create a domain user account that matches my win2000 local user account with the same password. I am always be able to access to the domain resources. I may create a local logon.bat to map the network and printer. Here is a mapping example, net use h: \\server1\marketing password /user:ntdomain\logonid (you may or may not need the password in the command). Can't ping other network router Q: I recently upgraded my servers from NT4 to W2K.
Something I didn't think about is connectivity to another location. I'm a
small city on a single domain using 172.xxx.x.0 scheme. Our Fire Department
is on a different domain with its own IP scheme (192.168.0.x). We have a
Cisco router
Q: I get error whenever I
try to setup ICS
Q: How to connect to
three different network A: as a consultant, I use my laptop connecting to different domains every
day. I may use netsh.exe or hardware profiles, but I prefer to logon the local
computer and get the network IP to access the domain/home network. For more
information, go to

I recently upgraded the domain from NT4 to 2000 and gradually all the Windows
98 clients are loosing the ability to logon. Can anyone help me on this
issue.
A: Is it possible you change the DHCP, DNS or WINS settings? If you re-setup DHCP and DNS, the client may have correct settings whenever DHCP release the net new DNS. Check the DHCP, DNS and WINS setting. Q: Cannot logon after removing the domain I have a windows 2000 professional laptop workstation. I used to belong to
a domain on my network, but I recently A1: You may have other two options. Robert L A2: It seems like the following was the sequence of events:
Subject: VPN w98 works but nor
w2k A: Win2k and XP both use DNS to find other machines whereas Win98 uses NetBIOS or Wins. So, you will need to set up the DNS on VPN Server and clients Subject: WinXP Home and NetworkQ: I have just been told that to share/ Access/ Edit shared files using the XP HOME machine is not easy and EVERY time I want a file I would need to enter a password or something.A: I
believe XP Home uses simple file sharing as default. It suppose making home
computer sharing easy. But if you setup a peer-to-peer\domain network,
accessing the Internet and concerning the security, you may need to make some
changes. XP Home can't join domain network but you
