Re: Cannot access server shares

IP address of the SBS server, IP address of the wireless laptop, ping results between the two, etc. This is basic troubleshooting of a network connection. You don't specify how your wireless laptop gets connected. Is there an internal wireless access point? Or a wireless router? Does the wireless connection on the laptop have Client for Microsoft Networks enabled? Does it have Windows Firewall running?

A wireless xp pro laptop cannot access SBS 03 shared folders. They do not appear in the list of server shares when viewed from the laptop. Permissions on the SBS for the shares include the admin user (me). Wired xp pro desktops have no problem.

The SBS uses R&RA and so Windows Firewall cannot be configured there. How can I troubleshoot this?
