Subject: Can Ping but Can't Map or Print |
Comment: Win2000, Fixed TCP/IP Addresses, Network is working fine other than we can't connect to a printer or map a drive on a particular workstation. That machine can use other network resources, but we can't connect to it. We can ping ok, but not connect. Any ideas?

Reply: (edit)check the networking ID stuff, like the workgroup or domain name. just verify all settings are identical (except the name and IP) to the other win2k boxes.

Reply: (edit)Are you sharing internet access on this network ? Would you have some kind of software or hardware firewall installed.? Do you have the same log on info on all machines ? Do you have the same protocols installed on all systems ?

Reply: (edit)Yes, we have internet access via a dsl modem. Yes, we have a hardware firewall, but we've had this problem since before it was installed between the dsl modem and our hub. Everything is the same on all pc's except for 1 98 machine and 1 xp machine.
