setting peer to peer network

[sakalloo8248]

Hey guys,
I set up the local area network. 5 windows 98 are seeing each other and Xp
one XP see only two windows 98 and itself. I am not able to figure why. I
tried to type winipcfg in the run command for XP. It tells me windows cannot
find winipcfg. Make sure you type the name correctly.

its ipconfig in XP.

WinXP doesn't have the same winipcfg that previous versions of windows have, so it's normal that it cannot find it.

If you want to see your ip, you can go to a dos prompt and type ipconfig...or just check off the checkbox in your Local Area Network Properties dialog box to "show icon in notification area when connected" and use that.

This thread belongs in the network forum and you'll probably get more responses there.

Make sure you have F&P sharing enabled and NetBEUI running on the win98 machines.
