Connection problems XP machine to the rest of the home network

I have a home network with a Vista machine configuration, a NAS and a XP computer. The Vista PC is able to read and write on the NAS and sees the XP computer. PC XP have internet access but can only see the SIN as uPnP and cannot read or write on the NAS and does not see the Vista machine or WORKING Group also. Both computers have the McAffee protection and 'trust' between them.

What I've done wrong? Can someone please help?

Hello

Regarding SIN, you should check the Server NAS Manuel and software making sure that it is compatible and configured properly with both computers.

Regarding the Windows share.

For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
Please Note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled).
If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic.

If you end up with the 3rd party software uninstalled or disabled, make sure that Windows native firewall is active .

When you have finished the configuration of the system, it is recommended to restart everything the router and all computers involved.

If you have permission and security issues with Vista, check the following settings.

Point to a folder that wants to share do right click and choose Properties.

In the properties

Click on the Security tab shown in the bellows of the photo on the right) and verify that users and their permissions (see photo below Centre and left) are configured correctly. Then do the same for the authorization tab.

This screen shot is to Win 7, Vista menus are similar.

http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/permission-security.jpg

The Security Panel and the authorization Panel, you need to highlight each user/group and consider that the authorization controls are verified correctly.

When everything is OK, restart the network (router and computer).

* Note . The groups and users listed in the screen-shoot are just an example. Your list will focus on how your system is configured.

** Note . All the users who are allowed to share need to have an account onall computers that they are allowed to connect to.

Everyone is an account, that means a group of all users who already have an account now as users. It is available to avoid the need to configure permission for each on its own, it does not mean all those who feel that they would like to connect.

* Note. Some of the processes described above are made sake not for Windows, but to compensate for different routers and how their firmware works and stores information about computers that are networked.

  • Supply Machines on the external network of non-domaine Thinapps joined: invalid HTTP 404 status Code

    So, I want to put at the disposal of the thinapps of non-domaine joined Machines on the external network through the workspace. Is this possible?

    What I have to be on the local network to download the Thinapp packages, or am I misconfigured? I already checked the user who runs has full rights to share inside and on the local network, it works fine, but when mandated by workspace it fails, probably because the client calls a share location, that it cannot reach. Anyone who encountered this?

    You use the option "Enable account based on access '? Please see VMware Workspace Portal 2.1 Document Center for documentation on how make thinapps available to computers not joined to a domain.

  • Can completely connect to the guest computers VM to other physical PCs on the home network

    VMWare Workstation 6.5 runs on a Windows Vista 64 - bit PC. With work stations, we have 2 computers invited running: TerriVM and MattVM (these two are running Windows XP SP2). We are seeking a virtual network set up so we can access the files on both of these customers other VM systems real PC connected to the home network.

    We believe that we are close, but we can not quite do things... This is what we have done so far:

    • On VM Workstation, we define "host virtual network mapping" to use VMnet0 with the parameter "bridge to an adapter automatically chosen."

    • On each virtual machine guest (i.e. using Windows Explorer in XP), we rightmouse on the C drive, click the 'Sharing' tab, set share name to 'C_Disk' and tick the two boxes marked "_Share this folder on the network_" and "_Allow the network users to change my files.txt '.

    Symptoms:

    On "JohnsRealXP" PC, we go to Windows Explorer, my computer, map network drive, type in the folder text box: *.
    TerriVM\C_Disk * and assign drive T letter. We see all the files on the shared drive and can open files on them. So that's good.

    On "JohnsRealXP" PC, we go to Windows Explorer, my computer, * card

    Road network *, type in the folder text box: *.
    MattVM\C_Disk *.

    and assign the drive letter Mr. we get a message "_the network path" box
    mattvm\C_Disk could not be found_.

    Otherwise, just beat us
    mattvm\ in the folder and click on 'Browse' and get a dialog box where go down us "Entire network" to "Microsoft Windows network" "Workgroup" where TerriVM and MattVM are among the computers on the network. By clicking on the + sign next to MattVM gives an hourglass and never hit the OK button and I have to cancel.

    In summary, I think that we have tried to share both of these virtual machines using the same techniques and communicate with them in a similar way, but connects correctly and the other machine is visible but no shared resources to this topic are accessible. Can anyone suggest something perhaps overlooked or something to try? Thank you very much in advance.

    You're IP Configuration looks good, the MAC address is different (which sometimes isn't the case when people clone their guests). So no complaints here.

    What about firewalls?

    NetBIOS is enabled on MattVM (it shows an unknown node type).

    MattVM is also no DNS search suffix. "Have you tried to map the drive with.

  • HP Deskjet 3830: Printer connected by wireless worked well until someone joined the home network - looking for password now!

    I created my HP Deskjet 3830 yesterday and it worked on wireless connection. At no time was I asked a network security key.

    A colleague joined today to the home network (yesterday I was myself), and requested a key security network - to my surprise I was so.

    I put my wireless network password, and he says that it is evil. I used HP Print and Scan doctor to confirm the password (I guess that's the same thing as a "security key" - it was OK, but I keep being told it's wrong.)

    It is porrible that it is because my setup yesterday wasn't network but without straight wire? Or want to say I'm wrong?

    Other: since yesterday I have not changed anything or even restarted.

    Reset the printer to the default network. Now plug it back to your routers SSID with password. Try now. If Direct wireless is enabled in the printer, turn it off.

  • New dv - 6033cl 6 connects to the home network.

    I just bought this laptop yesterday. During the initial installation, he finds my home network easily and worked well. Last night, it stop working. He sees the network, but does not connect.

    Computer is Win 7 Home Premium, 64-bit.

    Can I wireless home from my phone, so it CAN connect.

    I updated my firmware to the router (Linksys WRT150N), strengthened the WPA2-Personal security and restarted the router. Nothing helps.

    I have three other computers running Windows 7 here (2 are HP, it's a Sony) and a Sony Vista - all these are perfectly connected to the home network.

    I'm frustrated - ideas? Thank you very much for your help!

    I have trouble with my router channels too, and which did not help. I was kind of beat my head against the wall last night...

    You know what finally worked? I turned off the Bluetooth. As soon as that blew up, the wireless immediately (and automatically) hooked up to my home network. Crazy, isn't it?

  • ICF on Windows 7: how to change the location of the home network be connected?

    Windows on Windows 7 firewall - ' Home or work (private) networks are not connected and 'Public networks' are connected. This prevents the PC to be seen on my home network.

    How can I change the location of the home network be connected?
    I have internet access but cannot connect to a network.

    Go to "Network and sharing Center" > click on "Customize" > change the location of the 'Public', 'private '.

    Edit
    Sorry the above is garbage, I was on mode vista.

    Try, 'network and sharing Center' in the section 'Show your active networks' - it can show 'Public network' or 'work '. If, so click on the one which is indicated and select "home network".

    Note:
    If the other PC on your network are Win XP you can change the name of working group of win7 in "MSHOME".
    IE "network and sharing Center" > click on the arrow down to the network discovery > change settings > tab computer name > change.
