sloughman Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 I have an issue I don't understand. There are a number of PCs on my 2008 R2 Windows 7 network that I cannot Ping or connect to C drive using run command. The PCs are fine ie no problems users logging on, connecting to network shares or internet without problem. Why would I not be able to Ping them or connect remotely to C$ drive ? any advice gratefully received.
sted Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 firewalls on and dosent have icmp and file sharing exceptions at a guess
pantscat Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Do they have a firewall on them? Different subnet with no route from your PC?
happymeal Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 what do the ipconfig's show? different subnets/gateways used? IPV4 or IPV6? Are they roughly in the same area of the school? Are they going through the routers/switches?
sloughman Posted June 25, 2013 Author Posted June 25, 2013 Yep looks like firewall settings. Everything is so easy when you know the answer. Ta
