The Windows Firewall blocks network share on Windows 7

• The final Solution to network shares

  I have several Windows 7 in the household, all computers connected to the same router, a Netgear WNDR3700. For simplicity, let's call them 2 A and B, connected by Gigabit Ethernet.

  A can access the actions to the B through "network drive mapping. B cannot access the shares on A via 'map network drive', getting access denied messages. The occasion will try to create a folder on one of the actions of B, and gets permission stupid error messages. It goes without saying anything I read on Google until hours of research has solved this problem, that's why this thread exists now.

  Here's the thing. All are Windows 7, so they're all on the same network, they all belong to me, all have only accounts directors, each of them must be able to share files between them. It's the fucking 21st century. There is doubt about permissions or "ask your bloody administrator", because I am the administrator. As far as computers are concerned in this House, I'M PANICKING GOD.

  Yes, it would be nice to have a special folder for some user accounts permissions, but because I have a real life instead of wasting large amounts of time wrestling with Windows, I'm pulling out all the stops.

  • All sharing is enabled.
  • Password sharing is disabled.
  • Everyone is given permission.
  • On any type of access is set to full control.
  • Total control permissions are given to "Everyone", "Administrators", "Authenticated users", and "". ""
  • User account control is completely disabled.
  • Completely the Windows Firewall is disabled.
  • Microsoft Security Essentials is completely disabled.

  And yet, I still get permission denied messages. What kind of sadistic disturbed, Sociopaths have you hired to write Windows 7?

  Spare me the waffle, spare me the Pseudo-politesse of your Indian outsourced technicians free feed and give me the definitive answer to annihilate these ridiculous barriers once and for all. The only people who use my network are family members and friends.

  At this point, I DO NOT GIVE A BLOODY DAMN about security and confidentiality on networked computers. I want unimpeded AND unfettered ACCESS BETWEEN all COMPUTERS on THE NETWORK.

  That's all. Please notify.

  Two computers in question (the one with the sharing of files) and you are trying to connect to the share of this file must be on the same subnet of the same network...   If you run ipconfig on both systems, this private (assuming here, so correct me if I'm wrong) addresses IP do get?  If it's a private home network, most likely the first three digits of the IP will match.

  You used the IP address of the machine (the one with the sharing of files) you want to connect to and the name of the share on this machine?  (Command line ipconfig on the computer that acts as a file server... Assuming that it is a private IP and all these systems are not connected to the public Internet as a whole...  192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x is common in such situations).

  You our can also try (given you have):

  NET use \\ip.address.of.server\c$ / user: NetBIOSNameOfServer\UsernameOnServer

  ... With substitutions appropriate.

  You have a managed DHCP solution in place?  A Service domain name (DNS) to place or is system - this all being managed by a SOHO router?  (Which gives the IP addresses on the network and if you and IPCONFIG / ALL on each of the machines, which is their DNS on (just pointing to the router in many configurations of SOHO...)?)

  I ask these questions because if file sharing is activated and that you entered the Ip address of the machine and not the NetBIOS name and got the share correct too (the "dollars" is the administrative share that is there by default but necessary administrative private to connect to, the dollar sign makes it hidden from casual surfing) so he shouldn't worry about the network as well just to go out and find a system connected with this IP address.

  Also, you can connect to the share using the command line (with substitution is appropriate for IP and share name) on THE SERVER itself (seems like a strange thing to try, I know, but it does not check the sharing is on.).

• What people are included in "Level 1 Administrator permissions?" when the configuration file and network share permissions?

  I'm trying to figure out how to set the level of permissions for my files and folders. But I also understand exceptions to the permissions of level 1 and level 2. I've never used a "network of the computer at work." I've only used a "network of computers at school. So I have only a limited understanding of what means "administrator." At home, when I'm sitting at my computer, which is not connected to a network to work, or school, I'm the 'administrator' on my computer. This is because I created the "user account" through the steps required to create an account on my computer, and I assigned a password to the account. Only, I can read and write to files and folders that I created in the folder "My Documents" from my user account. At least I have change permissions and file sharing, all files and folders in the "My Documents" folder are private (level 1) and no one else can read or write on my files. I have 'full control '.

  However, if I'm on a computer at work or at school, even if I am the "owner/creator" of my files and folders, there is another person (my boss or my teacher) for example, which is the 'network administrator.' Presumably, this person has access to my files and folders and share a total control over them. If that's true, how someonewho is not the creator of the file or folder access? If anyone else can have total control over my files and folders at school or work, which keeps an unknown person to access my files and folders on my computer a home. What I mean is this: if I change the permissions to allow someone else to read and write in my files and folders, which prevents an unauthorized person by performing the same steps to access my files and folders? My question is about operating systems, I learn all that is Windows XP Pro and Windows Vista SP2.

• The size of a network share of 300 users using Persona management?

  I know that it depends on how many things users recorded in their profile, but what is a good rule of thumb to start? I dedicate a file server with a dedicated LUN just for profiles. In addition, this LUN is replicated.

  This will include desktop, my documents, etc., or will be pushed to redirect folders, located somewhere else?

• How to backup a Windows 7 Machine to a network attached drive (WD Worldbook) - using the Windows backup utility?

  When I use the tool, it lists only a DVD player in backup option, it does not find the network drive (and the tool does not seem to give you an option to search for manually - just has a refresh button). Any help would be great.

  ISTR that you have to buy Windows 7 Ultimate or above for the backup to a network share using the installed backup program.  The series Windows 7 Home won't make backups on a network.

• Is there a way in which I can see if Apple firewall blocks the traffic to a certain IP address?

  Connection to my e-mail domain seems to be blocked by a body between my home network (via Apple AirPort) and my mail server to an external service provider. I can connect to this fine through my mobile operator, but not from my home network. This leads me to believe it may have something to do with the Apple firewall, blocking traffic to. Where can I see if this is the case? Other possibilities or what to check?

  I agree that it seems that the Apple router blocking communication (Support Apple says that is not possible, is said by the way)... but please read this thread for another angle that you would not have thought:

• XP Pro SP 3 firewall blocking UDP 137 and 138 even though exception "File and Print sharing" is selected

  I am running XP Pro SP 3 on a working group. I'm trying to access the files from a Windows 7 machine on the same workgroup. But the XP firewall blocking UDP 137 and 138 even though exception "File and Print sharing" is selected. When I disable the XP firewall, all right.

  I did some research on another site, and I came up with the FIX for this issue. It has to do with the node XP somehow getting ready to type "Peer-to-peer". I applied the fix in this article:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/903267

  and the problem is now solved.

  Please come back and let everyone know how you fixed the end!

  However, the fact that this has happened and you don't know how concerned me (if it was my machine).

  Here's what I propose for extra cleaning:

  Search for malware:

  Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

  The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know usingGoogle (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

  You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

• sandbox on network share - tips

  Hello

  I'm looking for advice on setting the sandbox on a network share (netapp cifs) for a floating VMware View no persistent environment. I'm looking to keep the sandbox in the user (roaming) profile and I also don't want to direct object %AppData%, which I think may cause problems with packets if the sandbox is left at the default location.

  All advice, questions, considerations for placing the sandbox on a network share would be welcome.

  Concerning

  Somethings that comes to my mind...

  1. Please understand that your network will be a part of your overall application performance. If your network is good should not be a problem.

  2. make sure that you check your sizes of sandbox. You must make sure your packages creates the smallest possible Sandbox.

  3. you should have no antivirus on access scanning on the location.

  4. the network must be unique per user (such as the users home folder)

  5 AppLinking sometimes creates .merge large files in the package sandbox parent. Be sure to investigate this. The size of the file merger is the amount that will need to be downloaded/uploaded each launch of the parent package.

• Sandbox on a network share

  I would like to put the sandbox on a network share. I set the THINSTALL_SANDBOX_DIR environment variable
  server\share\username. Most of our ThinApps is about 3 times slower in the marketing and use, compared to executing a ThinApp with the thinstall_sandbox_dir environment variable the value of c:\temp.

  Is this a normal behavior that a sandbox located on a network share makes the ThinApp about 3 times slower compared to the location of the sandbox on a local drive? Otherwise, please notify...

  Hello

  Can you try to put this option in your package.ini file to see if it solves your problem of performance when the sandboxes are located on a network share?

  DisableRegistryTransaction = 1

  Note: this option is not documented so not officially supported (yet).

  Thank you

• How to connect a scanner of network including the Windows 7 firewall is blocking and adding an exception for the associated program to access the scanned files has no effect?

  Hello

  I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and the process for adding some of my old material has been an interesting question. Who made me stuck is to be able to access my network scanners "mailboxes shared" in order to recover my scans.

  The product in question is a large format Xerox 6204 printer/scanner. The installation process for the basic print server run the 6204 as a network printer went relatively smoothly and seems to work as expected. However, the problem arises when I want to use the functionality of scan of the 6204. Scans are stored in mailbox store ' ' on the 6204 and must be retrieved by a piece of software Xerox called "wide Format Scan Service. This program essentially connects to mailboxes mailbox via the IP address of the 6204 on the network and from there should allow me to download the scans on my Windows 7 computer. Unfortunately, in order to connect to the mailbox store I am currently disable the firewall of Windows 7 altogether.

  I tried to add the Service to Scan large Format to the list of allowed programs, which gives an "impossible to connect to 6204' error. I tried to add the program to inbound and outbound rules manually, even though my experience with this is limited, with the same error. So leave the default settings in the wizard, I also tried to use the technical netstat to find out what are the ports, the software used and adding them to specific ports in the properties of the rules - all without success.

  For now, I'm stuck the point of having to run my installation of Windows 7 without a firewall to use my scanner large format, which is obviously an undesirable situation. If anyone can offer help or advice on how I can solve this problem it would be greatly appreciated.

• Windows XP sp3 can not access the network shares on vista after installing sp2

  I have a xp sp3 computer and another currently running vista Home premium sp2. Previously, I was able to access the network share on the xp computer before vista computer I installed sp1. Both computers were able to ping between them without problem.

  I've upgraded to sp2 because I had problems with windows media center, missing records. Upgrade of these issues fixed, but this means that roll back to sp1 is not an option for me to get operational network.

  Please do not post a standard answer on the network configuration. I am familiar with the standards requirements to share files between xp and vista and everything is set up correctly.  Like I said everything was working fine before the installation of sp2.

  If it is a known problem that is still not resolved, I'd appreciate knowing that information as well.

  Edit: Firewall been disabled during my troubleshooting

  After more work, I was able to solve my problem.  Update zone alarm solved my problem and helped my windows xp machine to access my Vista network shares.  As I pointed out in the original post, zone alarm firewall has been disabled during my troubleshooting.  Apparently, when disabled, the old version of zone alarm has always been the origin of the problem.

• How configure the list the Windows 7 firewall exceptions to allow the blocked IP?

  I have a Web site set up in my trusted sites to access, but a contextual dialog box of security is blocked and I can not connect.  How to configure the firewall for a pinhole camera?

  Unfortunately, the link you provided goes to answers for Windows server, not Win7Pro, but I got the idea.

  I found this statement, (that I neglected before,) on the page for the Windows Firewall:

  Firewall Windows with advanced security is designed for use by COMPUTER administrators who need to manage network security in an enterprise environment. It is not intended for use in home networks. Home users should consider using the Windows Firewall program available in the Panel.

  It also begins to help.  I have another question to try to set up the FTP, and it is to change the default port 21 to something else.  Unfortunately, even if the programs allowed Windows Firewall prompt indicates change port settings, click on "change setitings", when I do, I'm only able to enter the program of applications, not to define the ports.

  Oh, well.  I guess the only provision I have is port forwarding in my router, and if it doesn't work, I'm outta luck.

  In the meantime, at least I know now how to set exclusions for programs.  I still don't know how to set the permission for a specific IP address, but...  Thank you.  Your comment has helped (indirectly).

• How can I put the Windows XP firewall in a port configuration 'allow all' and only block some ports?

  Without going into the details of why I need to do this, I'm putting the firewall of Windows XP in one allow all the configuration of ports and only refuse some ports I have in a list.

  I train this script via the command-line batch with the netsh firewall add portopening command.  From what I've read, if enabled the firewall denies all traffic and only allows ports with exceptions, so through batch scripts, I opened all the 65 000 + ports TCP and UDP, essentially with the firewall turned on but in a configuration of "allow all the»  I don't deny the 100 or so ports to my list that I want blocked after they are all open.

  This strategy seems to work, but the problem I waited and I now see is that svchost.exe takes 50% of my CPU time, have to deal with constantly these firewall rules.

  "From what I've seen on Windows XP, there is no way to have the firewall ON, and in a configuration of" allow all the "" because the XP firewall may not have defined port ranges, they must be defined one by one.  It looks like Windows Vista or 7 would be much easier because the firewall has got a re vamp of advanced features.

  Does anyone have a suggestion on how to realize this "allow all", deny some' strategy?  I know it's a strange use of the Windows Firewall, so let's please jump in front of a 'why would you do this incredibly stupid thing?"messages.

  Also, if it was the wrong forum (or website) to post on for this kind of question, I'd appreciate a recommendation of a more appropriate forum.

• I can't get the XP computer recognize the Windows 7 network file share more wireless

  Problem file/network sharing wireless with a professional system XP and Windows 7

  I have 2 computers - 1 with XP and Windows 7 pro upgrade and use a secure wireless network...  I have set up my network on the new computer and can see the files on my new XP computer, but I can't get the XP computer to recognize Windows 7 one.  What should I do?

  Hi Captive,

  
  Method 1:

  I suggest you to check if temporarily uninstall the antivirus software on the computer Windows XP allows you to connect properly.

  But don't forget to install the software after troubleshooting is done such that your computer will be at risk.

  Method 2:
  You can also check the settings of firewall on the windows XP computer. You can check if the ports are opened correctly for the network to connect. See the help link - below
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/283673

  Method 3:
  If the problem persists, you can even perform the clean boot on the Windows XP computer and check if you can identify the application that is causing problems in the clean boot state. To perform the clean boot follow step 1, mentioned in the article, below, and then try again checking in this state of boot -

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

  If the issue is resolved check what non-Microsoft service or program is at the origin of the problem. referring to article and following the other steps.
  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  a. Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  b. on the general tab, click the Normal startup option and then click OK.

  c. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  I hope this helps.
