One way network

[MIKE C.]

I have 3 computers in “My Network Places” (A, B and C).
They are hard wired/connected with a linksys router.
This is in Windows XP Pro

Computer A can see B and C
Computer A cannot be seen by B or C

All 3 computers do ping each other.
All 3 computers are in the same work group (mshome).

Any help would be much appreciated!

Do you have a firewall enabled on them?

Is file and printer sharing enabled?

[davey6]

if B and C can see each other it may be down to a password on computer A or a firewall not allowing access to computer A

[MIKE C.]

Thanks! I appreciate the come back.
I tried no firewalls. Didn't help (sad).

I'll just reformat and reinstall everything.
I probably need that anyway.

don't forget that windows xp, vista , windows 7 all have built in firewalls.
even the built in ones can block access to file sharing or full blown remote access if they are not set correctly.

Tried that davey6.
Both the WinXP and the Esset firewall.
And there are no passwords.
Thanks anyway.
