    Networked Computers Don't Always Show

    Hi

    We have 5 computers networked with 9.04 installed. On some days, when you click on Place -> Network, then all the computers will show. On other days, like today, it does not show. However, one can ping them and I have been able to print to one computer which has the printer attached.

    SAMBA is installed on the computers for file and printer sharing.

    Any help or pointers will be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    This How-To touches on the visibility problem (among others).
