• How can I connect Windows XP to several networks, Wi - Fi for internet and the other for file sharing?

  On windows XP, I need to connect to two different networks. Free wifi for the internet and the other for file sharing.

  Different gateways, different static address, same subnet mask. But there is problem when operating simultaneously and must

  a network must be disabled. Is it possible to run simultaneously?

  original title: served various networks simultaneously on windows xp

  Go to where you have configured the static IP addresses for your network adapters.  Leave the "default gateway" blank for your local file sharing adapter and insert a valid default gateway for your wifi Internet adapter.  Of course, this will limit your adapter in a single subnet - which should be OK for use at home or small office to share local files.

  This should work as long as the two physical subnets have two different subnet numbers. In general, this means that the first three digits of the IP address of the adapter can not be the same on both adapters - if they are, then you need to make one of the subnets. (i.e. one is 192.168.1.xxx and the other would be 192.168.2.xxx).  This is usually accomplished in the router configuration page.

• Can't see another computer for file sharing

  Hello
  I have 2 computers in my house, a PC running Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 and the other a XP Home Edition SP3 race, both connected to the Internet through a router TL-MR3420 and the adapter TP-LINK TL-WN822N. I have enabled the sharing of files on both computers and have no problem to display all of the files shared between each computer, so far.
  Whenever I try to view another computer via "Network" or "homegroup" menu on 7 (or my network places on XP), I can't see my other computer which is supposed to be there. So far, I've tried a few attempts to analyze and resolve:
  1 ping each other by IP - success.
  2 ping each other by the name of the computer - has failed.
  3. try to access to "- and " run - failed with error 0 x 80070035 - path not found network. ".
  4 run diagnose step above on Windows 7, she returned with a result: "the device or resource (my static IP XP) is not configured to accept connections on port 'The file sharing and printers (SMB)'."
  5 turn off the firewall on the computers and router.
  6. ensure that necessary services for file sharing are active.
  7. the reactivation of the wireless connection on both computers.
  8 change the name of the Working Group on both computers.
  9. run ipconfig/all on both computers.
  10 install this fix on my XP.
  Ipconfig, it seems my two computers showing the active DHCP on 'no', so I changed my network settings to "obtain an IP automatically" she turns to the 'yes' later. And "NetBIOS over TCP/IP", showing the different statutes on 7 that it is activated on XP it is disabled, even though I put it activated via the WINS tab on the XP network settings. Still do not solve the problem.
  I don't know if it means something, but I share also some folders on my 7 to my Tablet ES File Explorer app, it works as it should (as long as I use static IP address), but if I try to connect my tablet to shared folders on XP, it always shows error message on either:
  WiFi is turned off (it is)
  SMB server is out of reach of the network
  The ip address is not valid
  Blocked by the firewall
  SMB service is disabled
  I guess that Wifi, IP and firewall are not the problem, and I don't know about SMB, it's stands for Samba / file Printer Sharing? He has already checked on computer network settings.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  I solved this.

  I opened my XP, run these commands via cmd:
  netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt

  netsh winsock reset
  Restart the computer and then change my connection of cable wireless lan then back to wireless again.

  Hello

  Open sharing Ports that are used on a local area network on the Internet is a Big safety hazard.

  There are secure applications that are built for this purpose, they use their own ports and generally are safe (as on the VPN or SSH).

  A free quick simple way is shared through secure ftp server. http://FileZilla-project.org/

• Not visible XP computer for file sharing

  I used to have an old netgear router that allowed me to file sharing between computers quite freely, but slowly. so I've updated now, I have much more quick netgear WNR3500 filled with firewalls. However the use of this seems to block the visibility of my etherneted xp machine. which means that when I open the computers folder in network in a new vista machine, it shows everything but the xp machine. I have tried disabling firewalls, routers and disabling the ethernet on the xp machine and using a card wireless instead, but it became not yet visible.the router itself responds to the pings and other computers connected wirelessly are but the xp machine won't. I think it's a problem with one of the multiple firewalls, this computer has collected over the years. could someone tell me please how to clear data from the previous network so that I can start a new one. and the ports to open.

  
  

• How can I use my Sony TV as a computer monitor via the Wi - Fi connection, it uses for file sharing?

  I "ve connected brand sony LED tv with WI - FI connectivity (router) connection. Currently I am able to view the media files from my shared folder. Now, I want to display my monitor on the TV. How can I do?

  Hey joshi;

  I understand what you're asking, and the answer is no. It's just not possible that the way things are right now. There are several ways to get your desktop on your TV, but unfortunately wifi isn't one of them.  Your best bet would be to just connect your laptop to your TV with vga or hdmi, and then use a wireless keyboard and mouse.

  I hope this helps.

• Create users specifically for file sharing, to hide the login screen

  I would like to create a user that will be used by remote computers to connect with to access shared folders and files. I have already created a user in the computer management screen, even if this user now appears on my login screen.

  How can I get for this user account is not the screen, and it is accessible only by machines on my network?

  I use Windows Vista SP2 Ultimate 64-bit.

  I guess you know what you're doing and have a contingency plan for when things go wrong.

  There are various buttons shown on the Internet, the most used is

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\
  Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList

  There is a Reg command in this article that you can modify to apply the change.

• Using ESXi for file shares

  Hi all

  OS: Windows 2003 STD 32-bit

  Currently our DC FSMO is also a file server with many shares and printers that are running on a DELL PE2650

  We bought a Dell PowerEdge 2950, 8 GB of RAM, 1.5 to RAID5 to move the FSMO domain controller, but the upgrade of the OS has not been approved, given that Windows 2003 STD may not use more than 4 GB of RAM, we divide the 2 Server 1 server just for the DC, DNS, and WINS and 1 server host the file share and can accommodate 2 servers on the Dell PE2950 ESXi

  question 1 and our main concern: ESXi is suitable for file sharing host 200 users have mapped drives and running applications from?

  2 given that the Dell PE2950 2 NIC can we dedicate a NIC to server file sharing?

  TIA

  1: Yes, it's not a problem.

  2: Yes, you will need to create a vSwich separate the file with separate uplink NIC server and use the second NETWORK card on a second vSwitch for management and other virtual machines.

  Kind regards
