Problem with working in workgroup

Posted: 07-16-2003, 11:28 AM
I hava a computer with Windows XP Professional. I think I
set my LAN Network corectly, but I cannot browse
Workgroup. I can only START---> RUN ---> \\10.120.32.100
(some IP addrwss) .Other computers in my Workgroup do non
see my computer , but they can START---> RUN --->
\\10.120.32.200 (my IP address). In this way Ican share
resources , but I think something in not OK !
Any ideas ?

Make sure that NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled:

1. Open the Network Connections folder.
2. Right click the local area network connection and click Properties.
3. Double click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
4. Click Advanced.
5. Click WINS.
6. Click the Enable NetBIOS Over TCP/IP button.

currently available"

Run "ipconfig /all" and look at the "Node Type" at the beginning of
the output. If it says "Peer-to-Peer", that's probably the problem.
It means that the computer only uses a WINS server (which,
paradoxically, isn't available in a peer-to-peer network) for NetBIOS
name resolution.

If that's the case, run the registry editor, open this key:

HLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netbt\Parame ters

and delete these values if they're present:

NodeType
DhcpNodeType

Reboot, then try network access again.

If that doesn't fix it, open that registry key again, create a DWORD
value called "NodeType", and set it to 1 for "Broadcast" or 4 for
"Mixed".

For details, see the section on "NodeType" in this Microsoft Knowledge

My original NodeType was : Unknown. There was no value
NodeType in my registry. I created such value and set
consecutively 1,2,4,8 , so my NodeType (in ipconfig /all)
changed consecutively to BROADCAST, POINT-TO-POINT,
MIXED, HIBRID. But I steel receive the message "The list
of servers for this workgroup is not currently available"
when I try to browse the workgroup. I can only run other
computers!
What I have to do ?
