I have Zone Alarm installed on my computer and laptop.

I recentlly changed the DNS to my ISP's the DNS used to be 192.168.15.254
but that won't let publish up my web site to the new location or view my web
site. I took it out since it wouldn't view my personal web site.

Not that this matters but all computers say
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : jenkinshome.local


I can't ping any of the computers within the domain.

I think I messed up a setting when I took down the web site and moved it.

Thanks again for your hlep.

It sounds like the computers are either not joined to the domain or more
likely the DNS settings are misconfigured. Can you post the results of
ipconfig /all from one of the pc's and the server? Can you ping the server?
Can the computers ping each other? Do you have any 3rd party firewall
software on any of the computers?

I have done but how do I access the folder from my laptop and the other
computers. Everytime I try and connect to the folder it says the following

mydomain is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if
you hav access permissions.

This lis of servers for this workgroup is not currently available.

Is there something on the server that I need to do in order for this to
work??

Thanks for the help.

Create a folder on the drive. I prefer to share folders rather than
drives
even if there is only the one folder on the drive. Share the folder. Make
sure the "domain users" group has full share and NTFS permissions. Remove
the "everyone" group from the NTFS permissions. Anyone logged on to the
domain will be able to get full access to the files. Anyone not logged on
to
the domain (e.g. some unknown wireless connection) won't be able to
access
the files.

Sorry about leaving the information out, Here it is
The SBS 2003 is the domain controller and all the computers joined the
domain. All the computers have windows XP pro. No it doesn't matter who
else
on the network can see the photos.

The sbs 2003 is the exchange server which controls the e-mail it was
the
web
server as well until I moved the web else where.

I hope this helps.

In order to help there are a few details needed. Do you mean Small
Business
Server 2003? If it's SBS 2003 or the server is configured to be a
domain
controller are all the computers joined to the domain? If you're using
a
workgroup and the server is just a file server what OS are the
computers
that will be sharing the 250 GB drive using (e.g. XP Pro, XP Home,
Windows
2000 Pro, Windows 98)? Does it matter if the other computers can see
the
photos or do you want to restrict access to just the two of you?

Hello,
I have a network with the following:
Windows server 2003 SMB
Four desktops and a laptop.

What I would like to do is take my 250gb hard dirve which is on my
computer
and share that with my wife and the lap top since we are going to
throw
all
of our pictures on there from the digital camera.

How do I do this so that we can share all of the pictures between
the
two
of
us.

Thanks for the help,
