Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hi,

Im using nLite 1.2RC.

I've a small (4 PCs) wireless network working fine. All what i want is to quick accessing and sharing files and printer within the workgroup (i've no domain).

Do anyone can advise what option to check on Network Tweaks section or other section.

In fact, actually after a fresh Unattended WinXP + appz on 2 computers, both can not access to the SharedDocs workgroup neighbor although the firewall is disabled (see image bellow).

Regards

I've checked your file thrice and couldn't find anything.

You should maybe check eventvwr and setuperr.log : your CD maybe has a problem. :?

Maybe try once without addons (though I doubt it will change anything).

I've tried with and without addons... same problem.

i've NO errors during the nLite process and No error during the UA installation. I've checked my CD, there is NO errors.

BTW, everything gone just fine, I just looking for the nework tweaks.

I too have a similar problem - I can find the computer in the workgroup - but cannot access it - it is a permissions problem (access denied). There are active shares on the computer but I cannot figure out how to solve this situation......any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried setting up the user account you use on PC one (the pc you are trying to connect from) on the machines you want to connect to?

That usually helps for me .... Interestingly enough, I never thought about blaiming Nlite for these problems.. been so long since I have used a vanilla ver of XP so can't even remember if I had the same problem then...

Well....... :blushing::whistle: ...... it wasn't one of nLites tweaks - it was one of Autopatchers tweaks....(DisableIPC$Shares or NoSharedDocuments)....

Trying a build with RVM update packs at the moment.

As far as i'm concerned, my user account is "Administrator" and i didn't setup it yet.

Frankly, i don't know what to setup except enabling rhe share folders and printers.

Any suggestion be welcome.

I'm currently having the same problem on this installation, but it was made with an older version of nLite (1.0.1 IIRC).. when nuhi releases 1.2 (he's said it's coming Monday) I'm going to reformat, and I'll let you know if I still have the same problem.

Do any of you have trouble with Internet explorer 6 or your internet connection being unresponsive when you first get online?

I only use IE but whenever my girlfriends wired PC gets online its almost like it needs to warm up and takes a while to get a page to appear even though we have an IP. Same goes with the network although I dont have this error pop up.

My wireless machine seems to have a simular problem but you dont wait nearly as long.

I don't know if it is a IE trouble. In fact, the first IE connexion take about a 40 sec to be connected, the next instantly.

Let come back to our MAIN problem.

Is there anyhow to to access and share files and printer within the workgroup (i've no domain)?

Can you ping the machine ?

Maybe a firewall is blocking traffic. This often happens as Netbios is a real security problem.

Maybe something on the distant machine ?

Open a cmd prompt and type "netstat -an" in on both machines : do you see ports 135/137/138/139, 445 ?

Maybe you can borrow a laptop to a friend and try connecting to your shares with it.
