Adding computer to second network

Hi,

I have a computer thats part of a network. Now I need it to be able to
access another network.

When I connect it with an network cable, some of the network works:
- I can automatically connect to the internet
- Using search, I can find the server and computer on the network.

However I can not access them any further (filemanager). I get a message
there are no logon servers available to service the request.

So there is a connection but not fully. Any ideas how to get this working
without destroying the connection possibility to the first (major) network.

Hi,

You can try and connect to another server like this:

\\server\share

(replace server with name of the server and replace share with name of the
share)

If you get prompted for username and password under username enter

domain\user where domain is NetBIOS name of domain where computer is in and
user should be account that exists in this domain.

Another option would be

net use x: \\server\share /user:domain\user password

where x: is name of mapped drive
\\sherver\share is name of server and share that you are trying to connect
to

domain\user is name of domain that this server is connected to and user is a
valid account in this domain

I hope this helps,

Mike

Create a local account with the same username and password you use to logon
to the other machine(s) with or enable the guest account.
