I have a home network that runs through a router and connects four computers
to the internet. Two of them are runnung XP Pro, one is running 2000 NT Pro
and the last one is a linux box. The probelm is with one of the XP Pro's. I
can access every computer on the network but no one can access me.
I have tried a lot things. Nothing seems to work. All the computers can
see my computer on the network but they all recieved errors saying conntact
admin for premissions. I am using simple file sharing and I have no desire
to do advance.
When I check to see if the windows firewall was blocking the requests I
found that none of the window firewall options are available to select. So,
maybe there is an error with firewall, but I really don't know. Orginally
when I install SP2 I selected not to enable windows firewall and that I will
monitor it myself. I do run a firewall and it is Peer Guardian 2. I know
that's not the probelm. I have already checked all the blocks and allows on
the lists.
Also had some adware that got on my computer when I restored a freinds hard
drvie. That was when I started to get a lot of problems. Such as I
couldn't connect to windows update and some other minor stuff. I did remove
all adware and I did fix the minor issues, but allowing other computers on my
network to accesss me I still can't fix.
Anyone that helps, your time is greatly appreciated.
