Vista and xp network together




















If you have any firewall products installed, including Windows Firewall, make sure that the File and Printer Sharing ports are open. A lot of times, a firewall such as Norton or McAfee are the culprits when it comes to file and print sharing not working because, by default, these firewalls will generally block the necessary ports required for file sharing if they are installed before file sharing is enabled in the Windows environment.

There are new features, and wizard procedures, that work on top of Windows XP features and procedures. If you have a working network, with one or more computers that use Windows Networking , you probably know enough to get started. There will be challenges though. One predictable challenge is the availability or lack of availability of drivers for devices that are operating system sensitive, like network adapters.

This has inspired various attitudes, even rants , among the user community. Computers running Windows Vista use the same layered network as previous versions of Windows, so start by reviewing the principles of layered network design and installation , and of layered network problem solving. All updates are necessary, if recommended for your edition of Vista , and some may have a direct effect on your problem.

As an interim measure, possibly before an actual Service Pack, Microsoft has started issuing compatibility, performance, and reliability fixes , covering a variety of issues with Vista. One of the most interesting features in Vista my opinion anyway is the ability to dynamically determine Receive Window size for each individual Internet connection. Users of high speed broadband connections will be especially interested in this.

Unfortunately, it appears that RWin AutoTuning may be a bit problematic. This setting has been observed to affect both LAN and WAN connectivity, and can cause instability, or lack of connectivity. Like every newer version of Windows, Windows Vista will use more resources on the host computer, and on any peripherally connected computers and routers. If your peripheral network equipment like routers are becoming aged, you'll be advised to upgrade or replace whatever you can.

NetBEUI, on the other hand, is now a part of history. And even if you can see a computer in the Network Map, you may still have to work on name resolution , or on sharing permissions , if you are going to actually access its resources. The simplest visibility will be enjoyed with all computers in the same workgroup. If you leave workgroup names at default, the other computers will be visible in the Network My Network Places aka Network Neighbourhood wizard, but they won't be seen immediately, when you open the wizard.

You may have to look under Entire Network - Microsoft Windows Network, for the different workgroups used by each set of computers. And with having multiple browse domains workgroups , your browser infrastructure will be slightly more complex. You do this using the Network and Sharing Center wizard , accessed by Start - right-click on Network, and select Properties.

Set the Network Location Type to "Private". This requires that your computers are secure, behind a perimeter firewall or a NAT router, and opens the standard Vista personal firewall to allow Server Message Blocks SMBs to pass between the computers. If your computer is directly connected to your Internet service, either get a NAT router , or leave the Network Location Type set to Public which will prevent you from networking this computer. Having set the NLT to "Private", you must now designate which services you wish for your server to provide or use.

You should verify each setting before continuing, and change it if necessary. File sharing. Public folder sharing. Printer sharing. Setup shared folders and printers. If you enabled PPS, you should setup access for individual users. Since Vista security is "deny by default permit by demand ", "Everyone" doesn't automatically have access to newly created shares.

Check the Security tab, for each share created, if you disable PPS.
