I have had a heck of a time seeing and accessing my office XP Pro
workstations from my new Vista Dell XPS workstation although I could Ping them. My question reading the background below is how I can efficiently configure the Norton Security 2007 without spending hours on determining which setting to modify. I have been going through the list of trouble shooting from this newsgroup and found the root of my problem - Norton Protection Center 2007. I have been struggling with to find a solution and not been successful. If I turn all the default settings to off I can see all the computers and servers on my small office network and my one workstation with Vista Ultimate will link to them. I can't continue that way without being connected to the Internet. Which setting should I concentrate my attention? I didn't see anything on the Norton site to help. I thought about unistalling Norton and reinstalling but if there is an easier way I am all ears. Any suggestions are appreciated. M Simonian 559 325 6850 |

I don't use Norton Security myself. However, some of my clients had similar cases. You may just add local subnet to the Norton security. Then the other computers should see all local computers. These cases may help,

Robert, It turns out that disabling the firewall will open the connections and access all the computers on the network. I usually only need to do that for a few minutes to find and transfer files and that will be my work around. I didn't see the documentation to submit the subnet in a rule in Norton. I will keep looking. Thanks for the suggestions
