I'm trying to get a client access to their desktop at the office so they can do pay-role and a few other things while they are at home. The old computers that they had were XP pro and it worked fine for them, the server itself is a win2k server. Recently installed all new computers, minus the server, with Windows 7 pro and obviously now they cant use the RDC.The server doesn't seem to be setup securely and they are using a Cisco 1720 router that I cant get access into, though I don't think you can anyway. every computer on the network shows the same IP when connected to whatismyip.com, so I'm not entirely sure how to get them directly to the computer they need.There is a wireless, but only for the Laptops and is a simple AP anyway. When I try to connect using the IP, I get prompted for a user/pass but it doesn't seem to want to accept the server's user/pass, nor the actual computer's user/pass.
My new Windows 8 computer is not wi-fi capable, I bought the adapter but it only works with Windows 7, they have a link to upgrade to Windows 8 but I don't know where to go from there.
I wan to access a folder shared on windows 2003 server 32bit from a Windows 7 64bit ultimate WS. but after asking password, beside giving correct password, it asks again and agian and do not show folder
We have a network of approximately 20 computers, network printers, and one Windows 2003 Server (used simply as a file server). I have an issue with two specific Windows 7 Pro workstations that just will not logon. The username and password details we're using are correct, but the server rejects them. I can logon using the same account from any other Windows 7 Pro workstation, or Windows XP station, so I know the issue is specific to the two workstations communicating with the server.
Both afftected stations show Logon attempted by: MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_1_0 error 0xC000006A which all searches on Google point towards incorrect login credentials, however I've tried plenty of perfectly valid login credentials and they don't work either.I've tried checking that the 128bit option on the Windows 7 machines is disabled in file sharing etc.
I have an RV042 setup for quick vpn access.The remote computer in question is a win 7 64bit. The PC uses McAfee SAAS firewall. This disables the windows firewall.
1. I can connect to the vpn with SAAS disabled and windows firewall enabled. 2. I cannot connect to the vpn with both windows firewall and SAAS disabled. 3. I cannot run SAAS and windows firewall together to check if this would work.
I need to figure out what windows firewall is doing to allow the vpn to connect, and so how do this with windows firewall disabled. I can then leave the windows firewall disabled and enable McAfee SAAS.The message quickvpn provides when it fails to connect is that the remote gateway is not responding. The client logs show that the tunnel had been opened but it was unable to ping.
I have a win xp laptop which connects via wireless to a cheap belkin router I have a Win 7 pro laptop which is hardwired to the router. The Win 7 machine is NOT set up for home groups. We are all on the same workgroup.
I have added the user name from the XP machine to the Win 7 pro machine with admin rights. I shared a folder on Win 7 and added the user name and gave read/write rights. I have no software firewall.
When I try to connect via win explorer via the workgroup I see the Win 7 machine (after 10 seconds). I see 'User' folder which I can browse and I see the folder that I shared but I can't access it. Access denied...
We have a working configuration for L2TP-IPSec connection from a native Windows XP client to the ASA 5510. When trying to set up a connection from a Windows 7 client, the connection fails with the message that all SA proposals are unacceptable? Is this coexistence possible, and what parameters would I have to change to get this working. I have understood that the Windows 7 client requires som higher security proposals, but have not found what these are. And at the sam time we are concerned about not destroying the VPN connection for our existing XP clients.
My Win7 laptop was unable to ping another WinXP within the same network. When I first got this Win7 laptop, I experienced this problem. The WinXP laptop has no problem pinging the Win7 system. A visiting friend changed the setting on the Win7 laptop and suddenly the two laptops were able to talk to each other. I wiped the WinXP laptop a few weeks ago. Since then, the Win7 laptop is again unable to ping the WinXP. I have googled for many hours now. I tried just about all the methods that make sense to me but still cannot ping from Win7 to WinXP. How I can reestablish communication between these 2 systems on the same network?
I have this test windows 2008 r2 server. I can connect to the internet on this server.However my client xp machine, cannot see the server via windows explorer. I can however ping the windows 2008 r2 server. Using the servers ip of 192.168.1.230 Another thing is I cannot also remote to the server on the internal LAN. Using RDP.I ve even tried with firewalls turned off on the server for some mins.
I planned for my customer to replace his old LMS 4.0.1 server under Windows 2003 by a new server under Windows 2008 R2.Customer wants also to set a new LMS name and IP address for the new server under Windows 2008 R2 and keep both servers on the network.I'm wondering what could be the best procedure to do that migration.Can I used backup / restore procedure in that case ?If yes, what file must I modify to adapt the new LMS configuration to new hostname and IP Address ?
I am trying to set up file sharing LAN between netbook running windows 7 starter and a MAC having difficulty. The main problem is that neither computer is recognizing my ethernet cable. Is it likely that its just a broken cable do you think or another problem.
That's not entirely true as I can see the XP computer on the Windows 7 computer, however when I double click on the icon for the XP computer I get an error message "Windows can't access ...". I am able to browse the public libraries on the Windows 7 computer from the Windows XP computer, but not vice versa. Yesterday after setting up the network I it seemed ok in both directions, but today only one way. I've struggled with this problem for almost a year now with both wired and wireless connections, 2 different XP computers and 2 installs of Windows 7 on the new computer.
How do you shutdown a mac using win7 (on the same network) using the command line?win to win: shutdown -i then name or ip-address, what about win to mac? How does that work?
I'm trying to set up a VPN connection between two Windows 7 machines (A laptop running 32-bit and a my home computer running 64-bit). By setting up a new incomming connection on my home computer and forwarding port 1723 (TCP) to the IP (static on home network), I'm able to connect using my iPhone (either over 3G or a WiFi hotspot). It should then seem that my server settings are working.Now, when trying to connect using my laptop it won't work. I use "set up new network connection" -> "Connect to workplace/VPN" in "Network and Sharing Center". When trying PPTP, a window pops up asking me to re-type username and password. I use the same credentials as logging in at my home computer (and the same as I've configured on my iPhone), but the server won't accept them.When right-clicking the VPN connection in "Network and Sharing Center", I can go to properties. But I do not know which combination of settings to choose. I don't believe it should be this hard though, when both client and server are configured automatically by the same OS.
I've recently reinstalled Windows 7 64 bit on a machine and it was working fantastic. I installed new parts including RAM, hard disk, disk drive, power supply. I rebooted the machine and everything was working perfectly. A few days later I booted and it no longer connects, regardless of being directly connected to the modem, the router, or using a wireless USB dongle purchased from a retail store. The NIC is set up to obtain IP's automatically but an ipconfig /renew gives an error and the built in troubleshooter just states that it can't obtain an IP.
My laptop (Win 7 x64) can currently access all the shares on the XP computers in my home network but,although I can see it, I cannot access the laptop from my main xp computer. I haven't tried to access it from the other xp computers downstairs. I have read the guide on this site as well as 3 or 4 other threads on this subject but am unable to resolve the issue. Completing the network setup so that I can look into my laptop from this main xp computer. My laptop has a wireless internet connection but I also have it plugged into my wired home network for sharing. I will provide other details as needed. I suspect that some essential services for file sharing may not be running on the laptop, but I'm not sure.
I discovered that my LAN port was not found anywhere, even though it was enabled in BIOS. This prompted me to buy a netgear USB wireless adapter which gives me internet access but I'm having several issues now.I am unable to synch my internet time with any server, and therefore cannot use windows update which requires time to be synched for whatever reason.
I have a dual boot computer - Vista Home Premium and Windows 7 Home Premium. When booted into Vista I can map my Network and connect to the Internet, a network printer (ethernet) and a second Windows XP computer. When I boot into Windows 7 I can still access the internet and my networked devices but I cannot map my network. Also, the network system icon (bottom right-hand screen) shows erroneously that no connections are available - but clearly they are! The attachments show the status of my Vista and Windows 7 connections. The only thing that appears to be odd is that my Windows 7 system is set to 'Public' and my Vist system is set to 'Home'. I have tried all manner of things to change Windows 7 to 'Home' but to no avail.
We have basically done everything we could have thought of and still no success - we can't see one another. We're connected to the internet via the same router and we share ADSL normally, we can both go online at the same time etc.We both have static IP addresses set up (mine is 192.168.1.10 and his is 192.168.1.11).One interesting thing I noticed is, when I log in into the router from my PC, under 'Ethernet' tab, it shows:[CODE]
I need to setup a VPN with two Windows 7 computers to enable file sharing so that I can ideally map a network drive to the server from the client. I�ve got it to the point where the VPN connects but when I try to ping between any of the computers on the two networks it doesn�t go.
I am trying to network my new laptop (Windows 7) with my old desktop (Windows XP). I made sure they are both on the same workgroup, the usernames are the same. I turned off the firewall, temporarily, even though I shouldn't have to because it's only the Windows firewall. I can see/access/read&write files on my Win7 machine from my WinXP machine. But I cannot see the WinXP machine from the Win7 machine. I set up a couple of test share folders in different locations, but cannot see the computer at all. I have done the 'diagnose problem' and received errors: 0x80070043, 0x80070035, and 0x80004005 after various attempts.
I'm currently running Windows XP Home Edition. While attempting to remove some malware from my computer...I lost my Internet connectivity The odd part is that my wireless status reads that I've got a strong signal. I can't reset my IP...my IP address is all zeroes and my computer states "NetBIOS over Tcpip.......Disabled". I've been unable to "Enable" this as well
I have a wireless ADSL Router with 2 Windows 7 Computers Connected to it via Wireless.They can see the internet and the Network but not each other.I have connected a wireless HP Officejet 1050 Printer to the Wireless and it can see the wireless and connects.No computers can see the printer or each other on the wireless network and I can not setup the computers to print to the wireless printer.
I've previously had a desktop and laptop both running XP and happily sharing on a network. I've upgraded the desktop to Windows 7 and now the network won't work properly. My XP machine can recognise the Windows 7 although access is denied when I try to go into the files (I have set the appropriate sharing settings on Windows 7).
Cannot log on to windows 7 enterprise pc. Adminstrator username account is okay to log on with. Comes back error message - "The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded."
I bought a WD MyBookLive NAS ( My Book Live) about 5 Months ago.I share a lot of files on it with other members of my family who live in the same house.Everything worked perfectly fine for about 4 Months, but now, problems have been coming up:
I can access the NAS from my MacBook Pro (MacOSX 10.7 Lion) and from my WD TV live ( WD TV Live) at any time.
Suddenly, from one day to the other, Windows 7 Users were no longer able to see the NAS in their network. I never (knowingly) changed anything at all, it just happened.
