Why list the servers with code "NetServerEnum" works perfect on one machine but not the other?

Did you run this on seperate machines with the same OS? The code looks ok. maybe machines configurations affects the return value. You may check what protocols are available in ur machine and compair it with the other. Or try to check if the machine has an access to the server. I cant really see from here where the problem is. But i hope i helped. :)

Hi,
Not sure really, but you're not initiaslising lPreferedMaxLen, which, to ensure all are returned should be MAX_PREFERRED_LENGTH (-1). Have you checked the return values, and compared lEntriesRead to lTotalEntries? If your return value is ERROR_MORE_DATA then the buffer isn't large enough.
This link provides an example of NetServerEnum in VB from MSDN: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;198896

Try this

Set myobj = GetObject("WinNT://yourdomainname")
myobj.Filter = Array("computer")
For Each comp In myobj
  Debug.Print comp.Name
Next
