| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

Simple Network Question
I've set this up half a dozen times before, but for some crazy reason I can't remember how to do it this time. I'm trying to setup a folder on my laptop to access the files that I share from my desktop via my wireless network. You know, I click the share option for a file on my desktop and when I open the "shared network" folder on my laptop, boom, there it is.
I seem to remember, on my laptop, opening 'Run' from the 'start menu' then typing the IP address of my desktop, a folder opens, then designating a shortcut to the folder. It ain't working this time. I'm sure I'm leaving a step out. Can y'all enlighten me?

Re: Simple Network Question
Assuming your laptop and desktop are in the same workgroup try running the UNC path.
start > run > \\name (file://\\name) of desktop computer.
