I just wanted to thank this group for giving me the suggestion I needed to fix my
networking problem. I have been trying for over a month to get my Win 95 networked
to my WinXP machine. WinXp would see the Win95 name but not the shared drives.
Pinging didn't work either. Win95 refused to see WinXP altogether. Nothing worked,
until I found this thread. Installing Netbeui did the trick.
Thanks.
