tundrak Posted March 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 I am trouble getting my two computers to talk to each other. They are connected with the cable and then they start to look for each other. The moniter on both machines is showing a magnifying glass circling around a tiny computer screen. This just goes on for ever and they seem to connect with one another. Thanks for any help you can send my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homecomputeraid Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 tundrak,I'm moving your post to the Networking ForumNetworking Forum. Please go to a command prompt (Start, Run, and in the Open dialogue type cmd, then hit Enter) on the XP machine and type ipconfig /all. Paste the results in here by right clicking on the title bar of the command window and choosing Edit, Select all. Please then open Note Pad, and go to Edit, Paste, or go directly into a post here and right click in it then choose Edit, Paste. Post the results.On the 98 machine, you can do the same, except type command in the Start, Run dialogue instead of cmd. (For those who don't know this, cmd runs the dos emulation in 32 bit mode in NT based computers, while command runs it in 16 bit mode).[edit]If you're uncomfortable posting this information, please PM it to me.[edit]It will look like this for each PC when you're done:Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]© Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ipconfig /allWindows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : pcc-xp Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : PCC.COM Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : PCC.COM pcc.comEthernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : pcc.com Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Linksys LNE100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter(LNE100TX v4) Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-04-5A-45-42-BB Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.31.100 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.31.1 DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.31.2 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.31.2 192.168.31.3 24.93.1.119 24.93.1.250 24.93.1.120 Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : 192.168.31.2 Secondary WINS Server . . . . . . : 192.168.31.3 Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : Monday, March 14, 2005 8:54:06 AM Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : Tuesday, March 22, 2005 8:54:06 AMC:\Documents and Settings\Administrator> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
