Network shares not working Have Zone Alarm installed and using a login script in a domain environment at home client computers XP pro, and domain controller server 2003
Ok, so i recently formatted a computer that was running windows XP pro, i just reloaded all programs and began sharing the folders i want to be available on the network, basically i would right click the file and share folder, and then add a few user names that i want to be able to have access to the folders.. When the client computers login say with user name BOB then the login script called login1.bat runs and basically does the net use stuff with name of share next to it.. That is not working.. The only part of the login script that is working are the shares on the server... the shares on the computer that was just formatted are not accesible from any other computer.... a copy of the login script is below... Don't be frightened by any of the names of folders, that was created on a whacky night with a few friends... Anyways, this did work before i formatted the computer which is called dellsonmandella.... Also, when i go on to the computer running server 2003 and open the file server manager and i try to connect to the dellsonmandella computer it won't happen.... Also, just an FYI, i have ZONE ALARM SECURITY SUITE installed on that computer, and i never did have that installed before, so i really do think it has something to do with that.... THanks and i hope i can getr this working rather quickly.... the main purpose of this is so i can share music between computers and i can listen to whatever in all the different rooms with computers in them.... Thanks in advance!!!

ok so i went into active directory computers and right clicked on dellsonamndella computer and chose RESET, it set computer reset OK or something along those lines, it did reset the ciomputer account (I think this was what you wanted me to do) and then i went into FILE MANAGER, tried to connect to the dellsonm,andella computer, and it gave me the same error..

yeah i think i did that and added 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.255 not working hmmm i will make sure both wireless and regular rj45 adapters both have that range i will just go ahead and add it again anyways....
It would be a good idea to test it with Zona Alarm turned off, just to help narrow down the problem, that way you know if you need to keep looking at ZA or look for something else.

Well this is what I did to fix the problem... I formatted my computer and reinstalled all my programs, also I changed the name of my computer and joined the domain... I did this because I tried to delete the old computer name (Dellsonmandella) from the active directory on the computer running server 2003, and it gave me some error message that it couldnt delete the computer from AD because it was dependant on something else, I didnt write the message down, but i can check it out in a few minutes, because the computer is still in the AD.... But i think it was a combination of things that fixed it... I installed Zone Alarm before i even installedf the drivers for the network cards, then it recognized them, and i added the 192.168.1.1 into the trusted zones.... then i shared folders, gave the folders proper security for the users i want to have access and everything seems to be ok.... I wish i didn't give up so fast and format, but i needed a format anyways... So i killed two birds with one stone.... Anyways, thanks again.... I will try and distribute the points correctly
Cool!
