server access issues

[mdlsFREAK]

Im having problems accessing a newly installed sever. when i go into my network places and click on view workgroup computers i get an hourglass and then a message saying i "might not have permission to access this network resource"


any thoughts?

Are there other servers on this network?
Is this server running a domain...active directory?

What OS is you server? What OS is your client computer? Sounds like a sharing issue or network discovery problem with Vista. Need more information to actually provide any useful help.

goto start --> run

type \\a.b.c.d (ip add of server)

can you ping the server?
