DHCP Scope?

I cannot connect to the Hard drive of the remote machines. (ex \\remotecomputer\c$ to get access to the c drive). We have users that have tablets and we can not connect to them either but can at the main office. Not really sure what it is but i think it has to do with the server\DHCP side. Any help would be great. Thanks

First ensure you have connectivity. Can you ping the target PC's/laptop's? What, if any, error messages do you get when attempting to connect?

See if it works via \\ipaddress\c, like:
\\192.168.1.100\c
From start / run
Would indicate netbios is not resolving correctly, try setting the computer names in the hosts file.
Also, you did disable firewalls, right?

Have already tried the IP address thing and it does not work. I would not mind connect though IP if it worked. And no it is not the software firewall at least. Should not be the hardware firewall but we are still looking in to it. I think it has something to do with the DHCP Scopes but dont know what.

Why exactly do you suspect the DHCP scope??
The DHCP scope is normally just the pool of IP's the DHCP server is handing out, along with lease times, etc. But if you're able to hit the other box w/ a ping, I don't see how DHCP could be the issue.
It still sounds like a filtering issue...or maybe file sharing is not installed??
Might wanna check L4 connectivity by telnetting to the box on ports 135 139 & 445 -- these should be open & not give a 'connect failed' message. It really sounds like a firewall issue if you can't connect on those ports. Also try it from the LOCALHOST & verify you can hit it locally.
Summary: I am a bit confused with DHCP scopes using DHCPd in Redhat 8. I understand a scope would look something like this in the dhcpd.conf: subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.1.10 19...
Summary: Using ICS with Windows XP, and when a computer setup to accept an ip automatically (DHCP) plugs in, it gets an address, where do I find that scope, anyone know, there seems not to be a dhcp server in ...
