Re: File sharing

Try running the command netsh firewall show state on a computer that has the
problem and then one that does not have the problem to see how the results
compare. If you get an access denied message to the administrative share
that would indicate that you are not a local administrator on the computer
or that simple file sharing is enabled. I would also use telnet to try and
access TCP port 139 and 445 on a machine that works correctly and one that
does not to help determine if it is a network access or other problem. You
can use the command telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 39 using the actual IP address of
the computer you want to access. If the port is open you will see a blank
command window with a blinking cursor like you will see if you run telnet
127.0.0.1 445 on your computer. Portqry is also a tool from Microsoft that
allows you to scan network computer for port availability from the command
line.

I have a few XP sp2 machines which have the firewall enabled, and file and
printer sharing is set to be allowed to pass through the firewall, but it
doesn't work (can't run administrative share). Most machines here this
configuration works fine. Any suggestions as to why this doesn't work on a
select few machines? Thanks.
