Whats wrong with this firewall exception??

G

Grant

Hi,

In group policy under the "allow file and printer sharing" I am entering the
following value:

localsubnet,192.168.1.0/254/,192.168.200.0/254

The problem is that I get "System error 53" when doing a net view on a
computer. When I do a gpupdate with the above setting in group policy, then
"file and printer sharing" is disabled on the computers firewall?? when If
the string looks like:

localsubnet

then everything works fine?? File and print sharing is enabled again.

We have two subnets: 192.168.1.0-254 and 192.168.200.0 - 254

How do I properly sepcify these subnets in group policy??

Thanks for any help on this!

Grant,

The correct way to specify the subnets is: 192.168.1.0/24 and
192.168.200/24.
This indicates full Class C subnet with mask 255.255.255.0

Hope this helps.
Regards, Arjan.

Hi

In addition to what Arjan wrote:

I would think you need to remove the trailing slash here:

192.168.1.0/254/,
