This morning I am getting grief from My Network Places on an XP Pro machine which is part of a workgroup comprising XP Pro and 98/ME machines.

If I click on "View Workgroup Computers", I get this error message:


I can ping other machines, access them using the network address, and View Workgroup Computers from a different XP machine.

Have tried rebooting (including a recycling power) but this does not help. It all worked OK yesterday and AFAIK nothing has changed.

Can someone please tell me what to check or how to correct this as it's driving me nuts.

Cheers.

Think I've fixed it. Stopped and restarted Computer Browser and Workstation services and now appears to be working.

Does this make sense?
