I apologize for asking this question, but people who know UNIX often know a lot about operating systems in general. I have a client with a Windows 2000 Pro SP4 host. He cycled power without shutting down Windows, and now the Windows network (Network Neighborhood) is hosed. When he tries to access Network Neighborhood (from Windows Explorer), he get "Workgroup not available. The network name cannot be found.". This host can ping other hosts on LAN and has Internet access, and other hosts on LAN see this host and can access its shared resources (filesytem and printer), AND connect to it via VPN (it is set up as a VPN Host). What is the "correct" procedure for recovering from this mishap? TIA! :-) ____________________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! oneSearch: Finally, mobile search that gives answers, not web links. http://mobile.yahoo.com/mobileweb/onesearch?refer=1ONXIC
