Help!! I am desperate trying to fix it.... The network conection is as follows: internet router to a computer, computer 1 to a hub, and hub to computer 2. Both have same local group, same mask, gateway, dns, and different IP. The issue is that i can ping from either end, but I cannot access from one to the other, not even having the same users and passwords created in both PCs. It appears a security violation... no firewall... basic secure configuration... Any suggestion?? Thanks in advance, and regards Cesar Cesar, Check each computer to see if Simple File Sharing (Control Panel - Folder Options - View - Advanced settings) is enabled or disabled. If SFS is disabled, check the Local Security Policy (Control Panel - Administrative Tools). Under Local Policies - Security Options, look at "Network access: Sharing and security model", and ensure it's set to "Classic - local users authenticate as themselves". If you set the Local Security Policy to "Guest only", make sure that the Guest account is enabled, and has a non-blank password. If "Classic", setup and use a common account with identical password on both computers. If that doesn't help, post ipconfig information for each computer. Start - Run - "ipconfig /all c:\ipconfig.txt" - Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post. Cheers, Chuck Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing. |
