XP does not see Windows 7 by
Z.K.
I am trying to use my Windows 7 on my home network and I am having some
trouble. I have two XP machines, one is professional and the other is
home and I am using Windows 7 Professional. I shared a folder in
Windows 7, but in XP Professional, in My Network Places, it does not
even see the Windows 7 machine though I can ping the ip address.
In Windows 7, I can see my XP Professional machine,...

Vista workgroup block by

I recently got my wife a new laptop with win7 64 bit os, i got it set up
with my 32 bit vista desktop on our workgroup and the laptop had no
problem, easily gaining access to my shared files/can spot my computer
no problem.

discovery, etc, i can't...

Can Connect to Router but unable to connect to internet by
Dave
I have recently upgraded to Vista home premium. After many unsuccessful
attempts at trying to connect to my USB adapter(Belkin N1) I updated the
drivers for my USB adapter for the vista OS. After applying the update and
configuring the adapter to the security I had enabl on the router (WPA-PSK),
I finally made a wireless connection to my router (Belkin N1 router). At
this point I was...

How to allow server access but restrict internet access? by
ChrisOfTheOT
Our Vista laptops (& my Xbox) access our basic Windows Home Server system
through a Netgear router. It's all fine, but I want to (easily & quickly!)
restrict & control when some laptops can access the internet while allowing
free access to the server. (For instance, so children's internet access can
be monitored but they can always get to photos & backups, etc. on the
server.)
What might be...

Advisability of ISP Proposed DNS Server Numbers Changes on Windows by
Tom461
I could not find a Windows 7 discussion group, which seems to mean that Win 7
users go to Vista groups. My ISP, Earthlink delivered by Comcast cable, says
the only way I can get out of their very much unwanted Earthlink Search
Assistant is to change the DNS numbers to, apparently. two preset numbers
selected by a radio button in my Windows programs. My question is whether
choosing this...

Vista - Windows 7 networking oddity by
Questor[_2_]
Just this evening my Win7 machine refuses to "see" my Vista machines in
the 'Network' dialog. My Vista machine can access all the shared items
on the Win7 machine just fine.
Previously (before this evening) I was able to open "Network" on the W7
machine and see every one of my computers. Now, all it does is flash
the 'green bar' across the top and give me nothing but shared folders on
my...

Can't open files that are already open by another user by
Gavin
I have a network that has XP and Vista on it. If any of the vista machines
try and open a file that is already opened on another machine vista hangs
until the file has been closed. If an XP machine tries to open a file
already open on another machine you see the dialog box "the already open do
you want top open as read only".
What could be causing this?

Question about using Robocopy or RichCopy over a home network by
Charlie Hoffpauir
First disclaimer... I'me really a network novice.
I've used XXCOPY and Robocopy to successfully back up entire volumes
to an eSATA connected drive, but when I try to do the same to a newly
acquired NAS drive, it doesn't work right. Instead of copying "only"
the files that are new (or changed since the last backup), Robocopy
copies every file over again.
