Archived from groups: comp>sys>ibm>pc>hardware>networking (more info?)

One of the machines on my local network (win98) dosent have the network
neighbourhood icon, interestingly enough I can access the shared drive
on this machine from any other machine on my network and it is also able
to surf the net without a problem but still no network neighbourhood.

This has been a constant issue with this machine for no apparent reason
and although it can access the internet through the network which is all
I want it to do able to do it still has my curiosity as to why there is
no network neighbourhood and why it cant locate other computers on the
network.

If you have TweakUI installed, go to the desktop tab and make sure you have
checked off the "Network Neighborhood" icon. Even if it is, check it off
and set it, check it on and set it, maybe it'll come back.

If you don't, then install it. Here's a link: TweakUI 1.33
