Hello. I am new to these forums so if this in the wrong place, I appologise.

My problem is as follows:
I am trying to view my friends pc via nbstat in cmd which i have been told shows certain propertise of his pc. I can carry out this procedure to computers within my network easily but when I try and go bigger, to even using the loop back ip of 127.0.0.1 i get this

C:\>nbtstat -A 127.0.0.1

Wireless Network Connection:
Node IpAddress: [192.168.1.136] Scope Id: []

Host not found.

I have opened the port 139 on both my windows firewall and my router but it still wont connect. Any help would be much apprechiated.

I have enabled both Messenger and TC/IP sercives.

PS - I AM USING VISTA
PPS - I have his permission

Anyone, please?

anyone?
