Networking computers - Error 6118

1 New Member
I am using 2 desktops (win2000home) for which I tried to creat a home office network.(via router)

When attemtpting to view work group computers ( and ultimately share all files, folders and printer) I recieve the following message:

You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

When I issue NET VIEW command from the MS-DOS prompt, the following error message appears:

Error 6118

However my workgroup name is the same as my domain name.

I have searched for my SYSTEM.INI file in the network directory (usually C:\NET) but I dont have it on my computer.

Please can someone advise me, I am running out of things I ideas here...

Thanks!!

What is the exact command you are using? (Are you using the /domain switch, or the /workgroup switch?)
