I know this question is asked a lot -- I've found several posts on this when
researching my problem -- so hopefully I can provide the right info up
front.
I have three computers in my network, all of which are behind a router. Two
computers are Windows 2000 Server machines, and the third is a Windows XP
Pro machine. The XP machine is able to ping and connect (through Windows
Explorer) to the Windows 2000 machines just fine -- I'm able to pull/push
files.
However, both Windows 2000 machines are unable to connect to the XP machine
at all via ping or Windows Explorer.
Here are some facts:
- From both Windows 2000 machines, I have tried pinging using both computer
name and IP address of XP machine, and both result in "Request timed out."
- From XP machine, pinging works fine to Windows 2000 machines using both IP
and computer name
- From both Windows 2000 machines, pinging works fine to other Windows 2000
machine using both IP and computer name
- Disabling Windows Firewall on XP machine has no affect at all (pings fail
with it enabled and with it disabled)
- I have no other firewalls running on XP machine (or on either Windows 2000
machine for that matter)
- All three machines are set up with static IP addresses
- TCP/IP settings on all three machines are identical (except, of course,
for the IP address)
- "Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP" is selected on all three machines
- TCP/IP filtering is disabled on all three machines
- Tried disabling IPSEC Services on XP machine, but has no effect
- File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks is enabled on all three
machines
- I've run out of any other ideas to try
Here are the dumps from IPCONFIG /ALL:
