The only thing i can think of (unless somehow microsoft has programmed windows xp to memorize passwords and get into and destory other operating systems) is that there is likely an ip conflict. that could stop apache, and viewing the files. What protocol are you using (smb, appletalk, nfs)?


Do you know the muffin man?

m0r is right, it's an IP conflict or Lep.. however you spell it...It could be a stray muffin though  :D

Using SMB.

Yes, I know the Muffin Man! I am the Muffin Man!

Oh, and before you do it again, do not set everything to automatic. It'll do this sort of thing. xp comes with most things on automatic, home networking requirements are more than in there. go to tcp/ip properties and make sure all of them have the same subnet mask and that the first 3 nodes of the ip are the same for all machines. and then make sure the workgroup/domain are the same for all of them. and that the computer name/netbios name is different for each of them. Do not, under any circumstances, use the automatic configuration utility that comes with windows xp.

I can't get to the control panel...Fuck. Looks like a reinstall, no?

Stryker:
Well unstalling is unavoidable after a few weeks of owning XP. Think of it as you are getting it out of the way sooner (until you have to do it again).

RudeCat7:
you must be prepared, and trained

to do a full reinstall anytime, anyplace...
