RE: List/show file shares in Windows Network Locations

Rob, thanks for the link. I apologize for the delayed response.

We do have the IBMi netserver set to broadcast every 720 seconds.
I can run NBTSTAT -c and get a list of all of the shares presented by the
netserver.
We do not have a WINS server.

For now I have asked the users to type the UNC path in the file explorer
address bar.
That works, just shouldn't have to.

I have bigger things to tackle, but will keep trying and post any news.

Thank you,
Bob

Me too. I suspect it has something to do with " Browsing Across Multiple
Subnets" as per this document:
