I cannot connect the network printer,so i type \\ipaddress in
start->run,and shows cannot find network address,meanwhile i run netstat -an
in the cmd window.It shows:
proto local address foreign address state
tcp 192.168.0.17:1050 192.168.0.91:80 syn_sent
192.168.0.91 is the computer's ip address which i want to connect.Why my
computer use 80 port to connect the network printer instead of 139 port?
A very strange case what i have never met.Can anyone tell me what the
problem is?
Thanks in advance.

My first thought would be that the target computer has the Windows Firewall
enabled and the exception for file and print sharing has not been enabled. I
would check that first. Your netstat example seems to support that conclusion
because it simply shows that your machine has sent a request "syn_sent" and
has yet to receive a response "syn+ack".

Thanks for your response.I checked the target computer and the computer is
running win98,and has no firewall installed.Other computer can connect the
target computer.So i think it is fine.All problem is in my computer.What i
don't understand is why i want to use network shares,and the computer will
send to 80 port instead of 139 port.
