List all available domains:

  net view /domain  Domain --------------------------------------------- MTIT MTITCANADA MTITCORP MTITWORLD The command completed successfully. 

List available computers in MTITWORLD domain:

  net view /domain:mtitworld  Server Name            Remark -------------------------------------------- \BACH The command completed successfully.

If you try to view the shared resources on a computer and get a System Error 51 or 53 message, File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks isn't enabled on the computer or its appropriate network interface.
