Windows File sharing problems
by Two More - 7/16/06 1:56 PMI have 2 comps on my home network. The problem i am having is that computer 1 can see files and printers on comp 2 and comp 2 can't see files or printers on comp 1 let alone access the workgroup that it's on. Comes up with error of "do not have access wrong file path and all that nonsense." My question is i can't figure out anything else to change to get it too work.
Comp 1 runs McAfee antivirus and ZoneAlarm Firewall
Comp 2 runs Norton antivirus
If that helps, any suggestions plz reply asap.
Thx

trusted range of IP addresses
by linkit - 7/17/06 2:44 AM In reply to: Windows File sharing problems by Two MoreI suspect you need to add a TRUSTED RANGE of IP addresses to each of your firewalls.
ZoneAlarm:

(make sure you close ZoneAlarm to save changes after adding the trusted range.)
The process is similar for Norton Internet Security (and many other firewalls)
