Cannot access wireless laptop on domain!!

I have an Lenovo Laptop on my work domain. From the laptop I can
browse the entire network. I can access shares, I can connect to
network drives, ect. However, from the domain controller I cannot
access the laptop. I have several shares that I need the laptop to
host. The entire HDD of the laptop is shared to everyone with read/
write access. I did that out of despiration. The shares are shared
out
to everyone with full control.

When I try to access the unc or the ip from the DC it immediately
says
the following: Windows cannot find \\192.168.1.101 Please check the
spelling again or try searching for the item by clicking start and
going to search.


I get the same message when I try to go the unc \\lizlt.domain.local
\share. I cannot browse to it, I cannot search for it. I can ping it,
it responds fine. I do have VNC into it as well, and VNC works fine.
As does RDP.


The laptop has the windows firewall service turned off, and there is
no other firewall on there. I have been fighting with this issue for
a
long time now, and I have run out of ideas.


The laptop is a lenovo with XP pro SP2. It is on the network,
joined to the domain, in DNS, in IN-add-arpa. I dont get it. I just
dont get it.

The laptop is connected via a cisco 1100 AP G router.

It's a permissions problem. You logically assume the 'everyone' group would
include the domain membership. This is not true. The domain members are
signing on with 'guest' rights, and 'everyone' does not include the guest
account.

There are several ways around this.

Create an ID/pass identical to the domain user accout, on the laptop.

Use the "Permissions" button on the share tab of the folder in question,
ADD, Advanced, use the "Find Names" button.

The shares permissions are as follows:
Full control: Administrators, domain admins, domain users, my own
personal account, as well as everyone.
The security tab reflects the same permissions as above.

Upon doing a port scan, i get the following results:

Open ports: 135, 139, 1026, 2869, 3389. All other ports appear closed.
There is no firewall installed, so I dont know what is stopping the
traffic. Its puzzling.
