Title: Windows ME not browsing
Post by: Anne Anderson on January 02, 2001, 12:34:28 PM

Any clues as to why the win 95 & 98 computers can browse the e-smith server, but the Windows ME cant?

Regards,

Anne

Check the configuration of dhcp server,
the e-smith server provides dhcp service to the clients, and windows nt based systems must be pointed to look for this service inthe e-smith.
the configuration tool in windows 95/98  is winipcfg.exe, and in windows NT/ME/2000 should be one too (probably ipcfg.exe) I'dont remember, My windows NT machine was replaced by my e-smith server ;)

Thanks. I have since found out that winME has some major peer to peer problems also and there is a patch to download. We'll try everything at this stage.
