View 1 Replies View Relatedthis problem is a little tricky to explain.I have 2 computers (A and B) on a home network, connected through a router and hard-wired with Cat5 cable.

Both computers can "Net View" each other successfully.Both computers can see the other's shared folders in My Network Places.Computer A can access the shared folders on Computer B and transfer files, etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a new pc freshly installed with XP SP3. I used it as a server, I shared the two harddrives and mapped them as drive F and G on the network. The sharing and mapping is successfull, however, after a few minutes of being started (or after the pc has been restarted), the sahred folders and harddrives were self-disconnected for unknown reasons. My colleage timed it, and the sharing lasts only 15 minutes after restart then it is disonnected from the network. When i say disconnected - i mean i can't be seen from other PC's connected to the network, i need to restart the pc (again and again) in order for the harddrive and folder sharing is restored. I can say it is disconnected because the sharing icon (a hand with a disk drive on the palm) disappears and other PC's cannot access it.

I have simple file sharing disabled.When I try to access the shared folder I get the following error message:Quote: \CATHYTemp is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.Access is denied.

However on turning off and restarting the PC the facility fails when attempting to Fax as printer cannot be found. On checking 'fax' printer via control panel this message is eventually given "Microsoft shared fax driver" printer driver is not installedThe only way to re-establish Fax Services is to remove via windows components, reboot and reinstall as above.
I'm not sure what settings I need to tweak, but I'm sure someone here as experienced this and might know. I have a desktop and a laptop, both running XP (desktop XP Home SP2, laptop XP Media Center SP2). Both systems are running ZoneAlarm firewall and both are current and set up properly for my network and for file sharing. I have file sharing/print sharing set up, and have no problems sharing files both ways...except... On both systems, I have "My Documents" shared, with both boxes check to "Share this folder on the network" and "Allow network users to change my files".

View 3 Replies View RelatedAm trying to set up a network with xp Home edition. I am curious about a couple of things. What is the difference in copying verses moving a file to the shared document folder? I would thing that by copying it, one is "duplicating" it and thereby using up resources. IF that is the case, when you access a file and make changes, are the changes saved to both places?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having a system with XP Pro x64 with multiple shared folders. Here is the setup. I have about 10 users (1 Admin account, 9 Limited accounts). I have created 10 folders for each User and modified them as shared folders with each user having access to their respective folders ONLY while the Admin account will have access to all folders. I have disabled 'Simple File Sharing', switched off Guest Account. Now I can view this system on other systems on the n/w. But the problem is, if I map a shared folder on one system, I was not able to map anymore on other systems and it gives error, 'the system can not accept multiple connections' in those lines.

I recently had a lightning striking down wich ruined my PC, so now I had to buy a new one. Luckily, one of my hard-drives survived. The problem is this:Ont the hard-drive which survived I have a lot of data which I need to get access to. In the "Documents and settings" folder I get access to 3 out of 5 profiles, but not the one I need to get access to. I had password set on those two user accounts. I guess this is the reason why I don't get access to those two folders. When I try to access those two folders I get "Access denied". How do I override this? Do I need to remove the SID?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAll the PC's on my network run Windows XP SP2 and connect to Windows 2000 servers. I need to give users access to 2 directories on the each PC that users have full control over. The others should be restricted (as they already are). I though that I could change the Group Policy of the OU and add the values %systemdrive%<foldername> under Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Security Settings->File System and set permissions on the folder, but this does not work.
Obviously I don't want to have to visit each pc to do this so wondered if anyone has any ideas? I had thought of adding the <domain>Domain Users group to the security on the folder on the local pc but again would want to do this via policy and not visit each one.
The problem is that I can see the folders, but cannot access them, but this is not the annoying problem.
My major problem is that I have videos and pictures of my young son and thats all we have, all the images and vids saved onthe computer. I think that the files are still on the computer somewhere as my C: drive is 225GB in total but only 150GB is free, I am taking it that this means all me previous information IS still on the computer.
