    cannot see shares on host when virtual is running

    I have 3 xpsp3 machines running virtual pc 2007 with win98 os. One computer
    has a Common share that all the pc's need to access. When the Virtual PC is
    not running, all can access the share properly. When the Virtual PC is
    logged in, no one can access the share. The other 2 machines can see each
    other properly.

    All three pc's have unique names. The Virtuals use the host's name plus
    '98'. All the virtual machines are configured to use the hosts network card.
    This is a workgroup network.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Hi DuncanJr,

    did you bind the VM directly on your pNIC ? Can u instead use NAT setting
    here ?

    Thanks
