• Computer Windows XP cannot share the public folder or access, it is own to share files through the working group.

  Every time error message:

  \\BOX A\ShareDoc is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.  Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

  I went through the forum after forum and I can not always win.

  I tried
  

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa restrictanonymous.  The value data is 0.
  • -> Panel-> network connections-> area connection-> properties-> Advanced-> Windows Firewall settings
  • Panel->-> LAN-> properties-> Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)-> Advanced-> WINS-> enable NetBios over TCP/IP, network connections
  • Network connections-> Wireless connetion-> properties-> install-> protocal-> add-> microsoft tcp/ipversion6 and then add Protocol->-> NWLink IPX/S/NetBIOS compatible transport protocol
  • -> Panel-> administrative tools-> local security settings denied access to the computer from the network = remove all users
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters-> Dword value = IRPPACKETSIZE = 18

  We'll call the problem BOX computer and the computer in the network of ZONE B.

  Computer configuration:
  All firewall disabled, Windows and McAfee on all computers on the network.
  All VIRUS Protection disabled on all PCs
  BOX A sharing the shared Docs
  Sharing Docs user = everyone
  Everyone has a FULL ACCESS.
  NetBios is enabled.

  Configuration of the Working Group:
  Workgroup = AREA A = ZONE B = MSHOME
  I can successfully Ping BOX A go BOX B and vice versa.

  Measures to control the error:
  I have Open View Workgroup Computers and BOX A and BOX B see each other and to themselves.
  The BOX can access files of the shared BOX B.
  BOX B cannot access the shared files A BOX.
  BOX B can access its own files shared over the network.
  BOX A cannot NOT ACCESS its own files shared over the network.

  I try next? Why can't display BOX A there own shared via the network, the documents?

  I'm still not win... any suggestions?

  Thanks for the tips. I found the problem.

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters-> Dword value = IRPPACKETSIZE = 21

  I had to climb higher I guess. This fixes the problem described above, but now he has opened a new WIndows 7 PC interfacing program with the Windows XP working group.

  I have more reading to do.

• How to get ethernet workstation in the working group with wireless workstations

  All the g ' Day. I just purchased and installed a WAG120n annex a modem router with an Ethernet to port 1 and two wireless network cards. The problem is that I don't see the workgroup on the NETWORK ethernet card, and the two wireless network cards can not see the ethernet NIC however, I can find each NETWORK card using search. One of the network cards wireless can connect and connect to the ethernet NETWORK card, but when even it will appear in the working group - I have not yet tried with the other NIC wireless. How can I configure my router to allow all machines are? If this is of any help, is NETWORK card ethernet Intel Pro 100 V, wireless is Intel 2200 gb and the other NETWORK card wireless is a D-Link DWA 510. Gordon.

  Hi - I'm going to mark it as resolved: I realized that I was looking for something I didn't need. While I have 3 machines with capacities of networking of industrial quality, all I need is a P2P system. I had already activated beside the TCP/IP NetBEUI, simply because it worked wonderfully on my D-Link G604T GenII and NetBEUI is what you really need on a P2P. TCP/IP must remain, then we can access the internet and the router. We can easily map network drives - which has never been a problem - and I was systematically put out of service on each computer network browser Service to eliminate the 8003 errors that continue to occur. You don't need the network browser in a P2P... In any case, the new (financial) year approaches, have a happy! Gordon. Why doesn't the RichText? I activated in my settings!

• Windows 7 not seeing computer XP on the WORKING group

  OK so I have 3 computers at home using three different versions of Windows:

  Desktop computer - XP

  • This computer is connected to the internet via a cable modem. The cable modem has a router NETGEAR Wireless in tandem.
  • This computer can see portable #1 and portable #2 in the WORKING group.

  #1 - Vista laptop

  • This computer uses its wireless card to connect to the network.
  • This computer can see Desktop and Laptop #2 in the WORKING group.

  #2 - Windows 7 laptop

  • This computer uses its wireless card to connect to the network.
  • This computer can see portable #2, but can NOT see of desktop (running XP).

  All computers are in the WORKING group. I have the Windows Firewall on all three. For the life of me I can't understand why Windows 7 does not see the XP computer. Windows 7 has been updated with the network discovery and public folder sharing (explaining why the other two computers can see it).

  Any ideas?
  Thank you.

  Hi GVaron,

  Change the settings of firewall on Windows 7 computer and check to see if that allows you to view the Windows XP computer.

  Also, follow the article given below to check the networking between the different versions on Windows.

• Member of the Working Group, but ask for password field.

  I have a router dlink/access point. I run my laptop on the wireless. I have an Iomega hard drive attached by wire to the router. I'm trying to get my laptop. I see the hard drive on my network, but when I try to access to I get a window to enter my username and password. At the bottom it says "domain: laptop.» The network on my laptop settings specify the working group. Any suggestions? He also says "Windows security at the top of the window. I was wondering if there is somewhere in the Windows security I could turn it off?

  None of this worked after some trial and error, I found I had to set up a user account on the Iomega storage device and signature using that. Thanks for trying it. I can't be expected to know on an Iomega device. Now I have to find a way to use it as a print one server where my default admin. account is gone.

• Replacement for the Working Group to el Capitan Manager?

  I recently built new servers, intending using open directory.

  The equipment I use are the new mac mini servers, with two 1 TB drives and 16 GB of memory.

  Historically I have used Workgroup Manager for direct starting, deployment of the printer files, user groups and others.

  Is there a replacement for the Working Group Manager who no longer works with el capitan (10.11.3)?

  The replacement is the Manager of service profile. See the built-in help of server for instructions begin. This is beta-quality software, at best.

• Need help setting up a network home wireless to the working group. I tried everything I read and nothing has worked. I got lost.

  I just received a more recent laptop and wants to set up a network so I can transfer files back.  It seems that it would be a fairly simple network to set up, but obviously I'm missing something.

  It must be a wireless network.  I have a wireless router, two Toshiba laptops, running a Windows 7 and the other runs Windows 10, and I have a printer.  I can access internet with laptops or both if the router does not seem to be the issue.

  I read articles that said I had need of a homegroup, but that did not work.  Then I read an article saying since my computers running different operating systems, that I couldn't use a homegroup that I should use a workgroup.  I followed the instructions given in the article and which don't seem to work either.

  The names of working group on both computers are the same and so are the passwords.  The computer names are different.

  I was on the old computer and when I go into Windows Explorer, under network, I can see the two names listed, however, when I click on the other computer, I get a message saying that the computer is not on the network.  I got the internet service at the time so the router was working.  Another time I tried to copy a small file to the other computer and the message said I didn't have permissions to do so.  I got the same message when I tried to add a folder to the other computer in the network area in Windows Explorer.  I get the same types of messages when I try things peers, while on the new computer.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  So far, since I got the new laptop, I spent nearly three weeks, trying to get things to work.  This seems to be the biggest challenge of all.

  Hi Carole,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  Let me suggest you refer to the article below which will help you to set up HomeGroup from start to finish.

  The following looks like a long history (it's only 600 words). I know not what is knowledge of the user, and exactly what has been done already. The info go through the motions of the configuration and verify most of the common aspects of the LAN Windows OS features '.

  All aspects should be checked, declaring that she "worked before" or incessant on"I didn't something ", is not a way to deal withcurrent sharing problems.

  ----------------------

  Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

  Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

  Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.
  
  Public share = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

  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

  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 .

  * 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.

• Work of the Working Group wired, but not with WAG160N wireless

  I have a Vista PC serving a printer shares and give a working group with Vista, XP and OS X machines. The Vista PC is connected to the gateway. They all have the same workgroup name. Features such as printing, hand access and visibility machine works only when the PC client is connected with ethernet cable, not of wireless. On my client Vista, the problem is the same when my IP address is DHCP or static. Any suggestions? It is a quite fundamental problem with wireless connectivity. The gateway is running the version of firmware 1.00.09

  It seems that the problem was with my software firewall of PC server.

  After replacing the WAG160N with another router modem of brand, I still had the problem.

  Disable my firewall deleted the question.

  My firewall appeared to treat differently wired and wireless customers!

  I had to manually enable files and printing, sharing, even if my home network was already defined as approved in the firewall configuration.
