peer to peer networking question
The computers are connected together with cat 5 crossover going into a linksys befw11s4 v4 router
They BOTH have Internet (cable modem) but cannot see each other
Computer1 can see computer2
Computer 2 cannot see computer 1
I did try to use the network setup wizard and named the work group Office and turned on file and print sharing
On computer 1 I click on computer 2 and a message pops up saying
Office is not assessable you might not have permission to use this network
Network path was not found
I have been on this for 3 day and can figure it out
Thanks for any help

Re: peer to peer networking question
If you are using the same account on both, and the accounts are NOT the Administrator account, you need to use gpedit.msc to give these accounts the ability to "Access this computer from the network".
Computer Configuration / Windows Settings / Security Settings / Local Policies / User Rights Assignment
The accounts should havee the same ID and password (for ease of use). Then, give the account full control to the share.

Re: peer to peer networking question
Idealy in this kind of a situation u should be able to see both the computers but there might be firewall settings blocking it. Disable any firewall that has been setup on both the computer which include windows firewall.
Also Can you please tell me the network setting on both the computers ie r they set for automatic Ip config. And also make sure that both the system have different names.
Regards,
Shijo

Re: peer to peer networking question
A better solution in this case might be to either use a dedicated set of NICs or a USB/USB datalink cable. Or, if you are set on using your existing connection and hardware, pick a protocol (like IPX/SPX) for the local network that is less likely to cross over the cable modem.
