Ok, so I've got 2 computers at the store...

Back room computer:
XP Home SP2
connects to linksys router via ethernet

Front desk computer:
XP Pro SP2
connects to linksys router via wireless card

I need the front desk computer to be able to access files from the back
computer for our storefront software. I've been trying different
things... setting up work groups (maybe I didn't do it right?).. except
for this file-sharing, the network functions perfectly. Both computers
have internet access. Help please?
Thanks.

OK, Dylan. Let's give it a shot.
# Both Podium and Server are on the same subnet (192.168.1/24), and both have
the same DHCP server and are getting settings.
# Both computers are in the same workgroup.
# Both computers are visible from Server, neither from Podium.

Check for misconfigured / overlooked firewalls, and check registry setting
restrictanonymous.
Misconfigured / overlooked firewalls:
<http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/your-personal-firewall-can-either-help.html>
Registry setting restrictanonymous:
<http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/07/restrictanonymous-and-your-server.html>

Please let us know if any of these suggestions are of any help. What you learn
may help others in the future, and that's the purpose of these forums.
 
Thanks a lot man, my firewall was properly set, but the allowed IP
address of Podium had changed since then and was not allowed access.
Granted, the software still is saying it can't find the files... but
that might be something I have to mess around with (the program is
Ibis: Jeweler if you can possibly shed any light on this, but don't
worry about it).

That's a problem with personal firewalls and dynamic addressing.

But it sounds like you still have a problem. Let's see what's up.

Take the following code (everything inside the "#####"). (Please update computer
names and ip addresses if necessary).


1. Open Notepad. Ensure that Format - Word Wrap is not checked. Highlight
then Copy the code (Ctrl-C), precisely as it is presented, and Paste (Ctrl-V)
into Notepad. Verify, and correct, names and addresses if necessary.
2. Save the Notepad file as "cdiag.cmd", as type "All Files", into the root
folder "C:\".
3. Run it by Start - Run - "c:\cdiag".
4. Wait patiently.
5. When Notepad opens up displaying c:\cdiag.txt, first check Format and
ensure that Word Wrap is NOT checked! Then, copy the entire contents (Ctrl-A
Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) into your next post.


Do this from both computers, please, with both computers powered up and online.

End diagnosis for SERVER



Thanks a lot, hope I did it right.

Here are the two diagnostics you requested. First is Podium (front).

Thanks a lot, hope I did it right.

You did very well, thanks. Your tests have relatively simple diagnoses too.

Only 3 tests failed:
1) Podium can't ping itself by name.
2) Podium can't ping itself by ip address.
3) Podium can't net view itself by the loopback adapter (127.0.0.1).

Server has no problems, including none of the same problems with accessing
podium.

This points to a problem within Podium. Either a personal firewall, or the
network stack, is bad. And I know that you said you looked at the firewall
situation, but you may need to look in more detail.
Misconfigured / overlooked firewalls:

Corrupt network stack - LSP/Winsock or TCP/IP.
