TO: CHUCK
FROM: ahyca
TRAFFIC ISSUES STEP BY STEP , problem has been fixed. Mystery remind.
This test involving laptop (client) with the same XP PRO SP2.
Desktop (server) is in XP PRO SP1. cabled crossover conecction. I have
configured this Homenetwork, using wizard. So, Simple File Sharing enabled
automatically, no windows firewall . Internet conecction (by Eth card), file
sharing and printer are working OK and TRAFFIC BOTH WAYS.
At this point (with network working perfectly) I have update my server to
SP2 using last file from windows update and not my old XP PRO with Sp 2
embedded.
I do a cmd net user guest active/YES on both computer (suggested by
CHUCK, THKS) and all work ok like with sp1. Traffic bidirectional client <-->
server Particulary client can see and access server resources. Internet C.
Sharing works fine and no problem of connectivity betwen server - client .
I didn't change my basic- defaul shema . I keep my password blank by
default. I was log as admin on client and admin on server. Same workgroup
name AXELNET, different usernames , no passwords on both computers.
ALSO at the begining, I have installed Norton antivirus 2005 who has done a
update and manage very good windows firewall , Internet whorms attacks and
windows antivirus... insted of Microsoft firewall.....
AFTER this procedure. The problem: "client can not access server
ressources", printer and file sharing and internet connectivity issues . ALL
HAS BEEN FIXED.
?????new SP2 from windows update has been modified, updated ?
????? Solution has been the fact using command: net user guest /active:
YES on both computers
Not sure at all where exactly the problem has been fixed.
Cheers
