From: BenArtM on 22 Jun 2005 14:29 I keep getting the error message "network not accessible...you might not have permission....yada yada. It worked fine two weeks ago with Symantec firewall and antivirus, windows firewall turned off. I don't know of anything that I have installed or updated that would have changed this. I've searched through the posts and thought I had it figured out yesterday using this information: > If both systems are XP, on the Desktop, do the following: > > Click Start, click Run, type REGEDIT (hit enter) > go to: > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\LSA > > Look for "RestrictAnonymous" and ensure it is set to 0. This worked briefly yesterday, but today, it is back to the usual, and the "restrictanonymous" option keeps resetting itself to 1. I can't ping my own ip address, but I can ping the other computer on the network. Mine is xp home, the other computer is a laptop running xp pro, at my wits end, Ben
From: Clark on 22 Jun 2005 14:39 Have you checked the Windows update to see if you have the newest ones. There was a rumor that one of the earlier ones had caused some problems but had been corrected in a later release. It seems there have been several folks with the "it worked last week" situation. As far as the pinging goes, can you ping 127.0.0.1 from your computer? You may have something blocking the ping request. Let us know what you find.

From: Rob on 26 Jun 2005 11:47 Hi Ben Is your Nortan Firewall and Antivirus turned off as well as the Windows Firewall? I've been having the same problems as I can't access my desktop pc from my laptop or the other way around. I have run the network wizard on Nortan Internet Security and places the IP address of both computers in the trusted zone. I also have ZoneAlarm installed on my laptop. The desktop pc has XP Pro and the laptop has XP Home. I've run out of idea's too.

From: BenArtM on 27 Jun 2005 09:11 Thanks for the advice, I believe all of my updates are current, with sp2. I tried turning off my firewall (symantec firewall, symantec antivirus), and both computers are in the trusted zone. I tried to turn off windows firewall, but it was already disabled, and it won't let me turn it back on or make any changes to it. I tried uninstalling symantec and my internet no longer exists. I called my DSL provider, they tried a few things, said the problem was with the modem, sent a guy to the house with a new modem, tried that, no luck. They told me that they've done what they can for me, have a nice day. Unfortunately (fortunately), I'm on vacation, so I can't deal with it right now. Thanks again for taking the time to read this, Ben
From: BenArtM on 3 Jul 2005 00:14 ok, I know I am replying to myself, but just to update, I uninstalled all my firewall stuff, tried to restore my computer to an earlier date (didn't work), and finally got somewhere when I reinstalled my symantec firewall and antivirus. I still don't know how or why, but everything seems to be working now, so I guess that's it
