[AccessD] OT Lost shares

It is normal that shares are lost when a computer changed name. If the
computer is no longer there, shares are gone to....

Network environment does not show up computers is probably due to you
also changed the workgroup name. Windows will only show up computers
from the same workgroup in a P2P network.

OT: I know this is completely off topic but I remember seeing something
a while back but just can not re-find it and will need the information
tomorrow.

Hi All:

Does anyone know why all the shares are lost from a station when the
computer name is changed? Reconnecting the local shares has to be done
by entering the UNC for each computer and printer and the local network
no longer shows up in the file explorer display. (The network being
worked on is an old Win98 one.)

Any help in this area would be much appreciated.

Jim
