Hello,

I am setting up a LAN of 3 PC boxes & 2 UNIX FreeBSD's, SMC Barricade
Router & Hub. The UNIX - PC interactions to use SAMBA, no problem
expected there, had it set up before. The 3 PC's, 2 Wins2000
Professional. & 1 Win98.

All PC's shows the correct IP settings from IPCONFIG, with respect to IP
ADDRESS; SUBNET MASK & DEFAULT GATEWAY. I can ping from each to each
with a typical < 10 ms signal return.

A "tracert" shows again < 10 ms signal to target machine in 1 hop

The problem : despite this apparent symmetrical interaction, one of the
Win2000 machine does not share it's files with the otherWin2000 machine,
but shares files with the Win98 PC. OFf course file sharing is set for
all disks, could someone identify the problem and a fix.

Thanks

Not knowing everything about it - is there some sort of permissions
that need to be set ? Maybe 98 doesn't require them but 2000 to 2000
needs them? Just thoughts...

Sorry if this doesn't help.

Sounds like permissions.
Is the UserID used on the other workstations listed in the Local Users list
?
