XP Machine Asks For Password On Shares
May 31, 2012
I have two xp pro machines that im trying to share an accounting system on one machine is the sage accounting and i want to join another machine to it the sage is working on both machines except the one is not allowing reports, comes up with an erro when i map drives i have to put in a user name and password (only once) then it works but im suspecting this is causing a problem for the reports on the previous two machines that worked fine...(we have just upgraded both) it asked for a windows password but you just pressed enter and it logged in.how do you get two xp machines to talk without password prompt i have run the networking wizard on both, and they are both on the same workgroup

Well there are 2 PC in my LAN:NBNotebook WiFi connection to my router NETGEAR DGN2200v3 Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1 DSKDesktop Cabled connection to my router NETGEAR DGN2200V3 Windows XP Home Edition 32bit SP3 If from DSK I try to access NB shared folders through network, everything is fine.If from NB I try to access DSK shared folders through network, the following window appears:The strange thing is that this problem seems to occur randomly! Sometimes it occurs, sometimes not (during the same session of usage of NB). This is annoying because usually I need to work with NB on files which are stored in DSK through local network, so if I need to apply a change to a file, sometimes I won't have a chance to do that.
Some minutes ago I configured DSK and NB so that the account for both has the same username and password.When on NB I try to access DSK shared folders, the window I posted above appears, I fill the data but neither this time I have granted access...This is what happens:- I reset NB WiFi connection- Using NB I try to access DSK shared folders --> everything is ok- About 5 minutes passes- Using NB I try to access DSK shared folders --> the authentication window appears, I fill the username and password fields but they won't be recognized

I`ll get straight to the point. I have at work a domain of computers. on one of the computers (I have admin rights) I want to share a folder that can be accessed by other computers that are not in the domain. By default accessing that share requires a user/pass. My question is: can I configure something on the computer (running windows 2008 server) to the shared folder so that other computers that are not from the domain will gain access to without user/pass requirement (like a normal share)?

I am having trouble accessing shares via client SSL VPN. I have an ASA 5505 running 8.4(4)1 The share is on on Ubuntu server 11.04 running Samba 3.5.8
This may not be strictly a Cisco issue and it seems to be an interoperbility issue between ASA and Samba. Or simply the smb.conf configuration.
I suspect the issue is down to the interpretation of Lanman on the ASA as I know the usernames and passwords work correctly when accesing the shares from other platforms (Windows Vista and Ubuntu desktop 12.04)
When monitoring the Samba logs I get the following errors: (amongst others)
ntlm_password_check: NT MD4 password check failed for user testuser
Storing account testuser with RID 1000
check_ntlm_password: sam authentication for user [testuser] FAILED with error
[Code].....

I am running 802.1x using a cluster of ACS 5.2 appliances and Windows XP hosts using EAP-MSCHAPv2 over a PEAP tunnel.The PC are set to perform machine authentication and if authentication is successful,they are mapped to a specific VLAN based on their AD group memberships.The problem that I am encountering is when the machine password expires while a user has their laptop off the LAN. When they bring the laptop back to work and put it on the LAN, authentication fails and the laptop does not run through the authorization policy to determine what action to take. Looking at the microsoft site, I found this:
http:[url].....
This basically states that Microsoft is aware that Windows XP is not able to change machine passwords on login after the expiry period. They offer two solutions for a workaround:
1. Use EAP-TLS - I don't want to use certificates for machine authentication due to PCs dropping off the network when they are renamed due to the PC name on the certificate not matching the PCs actual name
2. Perform user based auth - Windows XP doesn't pause the netlogon process during bootup, therefore if the user VLAN changes when user authentication is performed, all statup scripts will fail.
This brings me to trying to perform a workaround directly on the ACS appliances after authentication fails.I have an access service setup that matches any machine authentication packets from PCs configured for machine based authentication.This service then maps the VLAN upon successful authentication. Since the authentication will not be successful, the process will fail before getting to the authorization policy.I have looked into forcing the policy to continue upon failure, however this advanced option is not available for PEAP authentication.Now,I am trying to determine if there is anyway to perform VLAN mapping for a host that fails machine authentication using a rule based result selection on my identity policy for the machine authentication, but this is not working. There really needs to be a way to force a policy to continue processing even when authentication to the domain fails for PEAP authentication.

I have 2 windows 7 laptops running wireless and a windows xp desktop connected by wire to linksys router. The desktop has no problems accessing the other computers.One laptop has no problem accessing the other computers on the network. The other laptop has trouble with the windows XP machine. It asks for login info, which there is none. I tested with the laptop wired and it seemed to access it normally. Also, it is not consistant. It sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I have gone through other posts and made sure that password requirement was off

I have a strange error on my home network that I cannot find a solution to.I have an Huawei SmartAX MT882 from TalkTalk acting as a modem connected to a D-Link DSL-G624T acting as a router/switch. Connected to the D-Link I have a Windows 7 Pro machine (64-bit, SP1) and an XP (home i think) machine (sp 2 i think).The SmartAX modem is set up to perform DHCP and DNS relaying and the D-Link has DHCP turned off and DNS relay turned off.The Win7 machine can access the network, get an IP address and access the internet without problems, regardless as to the status of the XP machine.The XP machine can access the network, get an IP address and access the internet with no problems ONLY of the win7 is powered up. When the win7 machine is off, the XP machine seems to drop about 25% of the ping packets between it and the D-Link router and has no internet access (because of this i assume). [code]

New Win-7 machine set up. I used the printer set-up wizard to install a networked printer in the new machine with absolutely no problem. Proved it would print from that machine.Now, I get a call informing me that her old XP machine, which had been printing to the network printer with no problems, will no longer print.Documents go into the print queue, but they don't get printed.No error messages show up.I did some messing around via remote access, and finally removed the printer with the intention of reinstalling it.Scanning for network printers turned up several redundant instances of the same printer with different names. Some are identified as "invalid" some a "access denied". Bottom line. I can't get any of the selections to install.On the Win-7 machine I did find a window that indicated that the printer is designated as being shared, but I didn't explicitly set it for sharing when I installed it. Also, I somehow got to a window that told me that for printers that were to be shared with other versions of windows I could optionally install drivers to support such machines. Didn't have the driver disk handy and took the window down. Now I can't even find it again.I need sorting this all out.Part of the problem is that out there in "network land" there are redundant remnants of previous installations that are being remembered inappropriately.

My dlink wireless has a WEP consisting of 40 numbers (or 4 lines of 10 numbers)When I connected a PC to the dlink it asked for the key and I entered all 40 numbers and it connected without problemI also had to enter all 40 digits for my Wii to connect to it.But when I connected my PS3 I only entered in the first 10 digits and it connectedI have connected various devices to the dLink and some ask for the first 10, some 20 and some require all 40.I have just bought a new phone Samsung Galaxy Ace and trying to connect to the dlink is impossible. I have entered all 40 digits and it wont connect, it just says "authenticating" then "disabled". I have tried the first 10, then 20, then 30 and it still says disabled.The problem then is I don't know whether the phone is faulty or the dlink just wants a particular line of my key.

We have configured an cisco 2800 for vpn clients. The weird thing is that after some time (not specific time interval and no idle connection) asks for re-authentication. Some times after re-authenticating session disconnects.

We have configured an 2801 to aggregate some VPN clients. The problem is that between 20 and 50 minutes it asks for re-authentication even though the connection is not idle. Is there a timer that creates this problem?
Below the applied configuration :

I have a network problem. My windows 7 machine is not detecting win xp machine whereas win xp machine is detecting win 7 machine. They are in the same workgroup named Home. And the networking system is set to work. I have left the homegroup I was previously in. I enabled file sharing for devices that use 40 bit and 50 bit encryption. On XP I have enabled NetBios over TCP/IP. File sharing is enabled on both computers. I think it's something obvious as both instalations on different computers are really fresh and both windows haven't been tampered with.

Have a school which is split into 2 domains (and 2 different subnets). A logged in windows domain user from domain A needs to access a windows share on domain B. So I made a bat file on the pc in domain A to map a drive to the share on domain B, using the net use command but specifying login credentials of a domain user from domain B.The pc on domain A has it's hosts file edited so it can access the server on domain B which the share is on, ping and everything to this server works fine.I created a user in domain B with the corresponding login details as in the batch file, same un and pwd, it didn't work. If I specify the un and pwd in the batch file as the domain admin account on domain B, it works fine everytime. I'm pretty sure it's not a premissions thing as I have given the inital user that I specified in the batch file full control to the share permissions and security permissions on the share in question, it still wouldn't work.
All I can think of, but can't put into good technical words, is that this user I am specifying in the batch file not only needs to have access to the share itself but has to enter the other domain as well, would there be some protocol or something in which it does not have permissions to use effictively but the domain admin clearly does as it works fine for domain admin?

They can connect to the VPN and I can see incoming connections, but they can't access network shares. I mean they don't see them, and in network connections it says NO INTERNET CONNECTION.

I have a site-to-site VPN (no client software) that is up and I can ping all the IPs on the other side.
My computer is connected to .2.0, remote LAN is .1.0
I can view all of the local LAN (.2.0) devices in Network Location, but can't access the shared resources on the remote .1.0 LAN.
ServerFolder shared directories is mapped as a drive and worked yesterday. It now has a red X on in and I can't access it, but can ping \Server's IP address.

On my network, I have 2 PCs running Windows 7 Ult, and 2 PCs running WinXP-Pro.When my XP PCs browse a shared folder living on a Win7 PC, not all files or folders are listed. It is as if once a certain number of filenames have been listed, something gives up.For example, on my WIndows 7 PC, I have a folder with about 400 folders of pictures. The XP PCs only see about 300 folders. The number is consistent as far as the number of folders the XP clients see. It is not a permission problem, because if I move some of the low-numbered folders out of the share, then the names at the bottom of the folder list start to appear.I even copied all picture folders to the other Windows 7 PC, and created a fresh share and still the XP clients only see the same limited number of folders or files. It also seems to be based on a percentage, and not a finite limit of file or folder names. For example, if I have 700 objects in a folder, only 500 are visible on the client. If I have 400 objects in a folder, only 300 are visible.

I am finally switching over my work computer from Windows XP to Windows 7. I have multiple network connections I connect to when I boot up. I've set myself as a new user on the servers I have to connect to, Windows 7 asked me to put in my username and password for each share, all connects fine but when I shutdown and restart, I see all my Shares as red x'ed "disconnected" and as I click on each one, I have to put in my username and password again. Windows XP always remembered my connections and logged me onto each share at boot up. I've checked "remember my credentials" but it's not doing it, Am I missing something? on any restart or shutdown, I have to click on each share and put in my login credentials.

I recently did a clean install of Win 7 64-bit Pro on my workstation. This was previously connected to my DNS (Windows server 2008 R2) which i use to host my files, music etc for my home network. I was previously able to see my network shares in windows explorer (client side) but now I don't. If i go to search box and \server the shared folders will then be displayed in windows explorer under network and i have access to them. I've done a small amount of digging but have so far found nothing to point me in the right direction. So while i have access i would like to be able to point windows media player to my shared music on the server, which i can't do now because I have no way to navigate to that folder. Same with other programs such as outlook, when i want to attach a file to an email i'm not able to navigate to the share. Weird as i have access to the share by search \server?

I'm running Windows 7 and I want to share folders with other users on my University network. I have the sharing enabled and people within my broadcast domain (the dorms) are able to access my shares. The problem occurs when trying to access those shares from academic buildings which are in a different broadcast domain (and are part of a different VLAN).I have verified with Wireshark that the requests to access the shared media do reach the Windows 7 computer, but for some reason it doesn't respond.

The shares on the LAN constantly drop(for 4-5 seconds usually) or slow down and then speed up again. This only happens on the PCs using the private subnet but the internet is fine. We don't have any problems with shares on the public subnet though.Private subnet goes through a proxy server to reach the internet.Recently we had an internet outage in the building and suddenly shares weren't dropping or running slow anymore.

I have 3 or 4 devices connected via a wireless connection, 2 of which are in the same room. Roughly a week ago, my desktop (Vista OS) started to suffer from severely reduced download speeds (5-30kb/s), while my laptop (also Vista OS) which is on the same wireless network continues to run at normal speeds (500kb/s-1mb/s).
I have tried a system restore, scanning for viruses, updating/disabling antivirus and firewalls, connecting directly to LAN, changed wireless interface speed from g to b to mixed, changed wireless channels from 1-6-11, nothing seems to work.
I have a Thomson TG782T router with a D-Link wireless card (which is rather old).

I have a Windows 7 machine sending shares across the network. Other Windows 7 machines have no problems connecting, but XP machines cannot connect. (Win7 can connect to XP shares).
I have adjust every setting that I have seen to no avail. This includes turning off HomeGroups, turning off password. Removing my password from my user account. Adding "Everyone" to each of the shares. I have even messed with the Local Group Policy Editor to send unencrypted passwords to third party SMB's.

I have the Apple Time Capsule connected to my ISP using PPPoE and it is working just fine creating a wired and wireless network. The IP address of TC is 192.168.1.1 and I have set it's DHCP range between .100 to .200Next, I wanted to add VPN to the router as I live outside the US and wanted to access some services in the US. So I got an ASUS router and flashed it with Tomato firmware.I assigned the ASUS as IP address of 192.168.1.10, connected this it to a LAN port on the Apple and used a DHCP type Internet connection to set it up. I then created a second WiFi Network and gave the DHCP range between .11 to .20Now using any Wi-Fi device, I can connect to either of these networks and browse the web just fine. The ASUS is all setup as a VPN client so any traffic going through the ASUS is through a US based VPN.

I have a PPTP VPN setup in RRAS on Windows SBS 2008.
The VPN seems to works fine, I can ping everything on the other end of the tunnel. RDP into workstations, access shares on the workstations. I can telnet into the exchange server and send mail. Get the default IIS page at http://server.
From the SBS I could even map shares I have on my local workstations, but when I try to access any of the shares on the server over the VPN using hostname or IP it fails, "The network path was not found".
Not really sure whats going on here, I've shut the firewall off without success. I reconfigured the VPN from scratch and rebooted the server and it didn't change a thing. I'm unsure how long this has been like this since no one uses the VPN to access file shares on the server. The few that use it just RDP into their workstations, no issue there. Though recently they started replacing a few desktops with laptops and they have nothing to RDP into, they only need access to a few spreadsheets while at home or on the road so I thought the VPN would work, I guess not..

I recently bought a personal laptop that I'd like to use at work. It came with Windows 7 Home Premium installed and because of that, I can't join it to the Windows Server 2003 domain we have. I don't really need to print or any of the other things that go with being on the domain, I just need access to a few key folders. Is there any way to access shares on the server with Win 7 Home?

I currently have a problem with connecting to some CIFS shares on a EMC NAS. I have created some bookmarks for those shares to be used via the client less SSL VPN portal. I have also setup SSO which works properly for web-bookmarks and RDP stuff but not for the CIFS shares.
When I try to access those shares I'll always get a "authentication failed" error message. Afterwards a new log in-box is displayed. I have been able to log in to those shares by using the user-ID prefixed with the domain name [URL]. Log in fails when using only the user-ID or for example DOMAIN user-ID. I have also tried with a share on a different Server (windows2008 R2) which works without any problems.
