>>Hi Nigel,

>>Yes, I am gaining more and more hope that it *is* the cable/connection and will be replacing both tonight.

>>I have, *at time* been able to 'identify' the problem machine from other machines but subsequent attempts to access info on it returned with cannot access message. What you say on that makes sense to me.
>>
>>Yes, the machine can see itself. Just no others. All have same WorkGroup name. Other two machines see each other just fine, all around.
>>
>>I suppose the fact that I am *not* NT makes this a tad different from your situation, though the cable would surely be a commonality!
>>
>>Will let you know how it goes with new cable.

>>Cheers and thanks,
