As it turned out I was focusing my efforts into the Win 7 terminal when in fact I had to make the change on the XP Main terminal in our store. Odd setup we have but I am glad its all working now. Thanks for the original post and all others.. Take care. Run these commands, it has worked for me. Some commands may hang for a few minutes which is fine, eventually it will go through.
LOG netsh int ipv4 reset Reset. LOG netsh int ipv6 reset Reset. This little thing solved that problem. This just fixed a client who still has a few XP clients running around his network. Just had to refresh some old Hp laptops for some XP based software…yes we are going backwards for a small project.
I get an ip address and able to ping pcs on the network but cant get to the network share. Also cant browse online. Cant get the software to work with windows 7 and above so XP is my only option.
While the Subnet and Host addresses together determine which computers on a LAN can communicate, the Default Gateway determines if the computer can communicate with any hosts outside the subnet.
With no default gateway value, or with an invalid IP address here, your computer won't have access outside the LAN. If the IP address is If you're connecting 2 computers directly, using a cross-over cable , then the APIPA addresses are perfectly normal.
Connection quality zzzzz Note here that most of my advice is about using your computer on your network, or at least on a trusted network. If you're connecting your computer to an unknown or untrusted network , exercise common sense. If you're connecting thru WiFi, your connection isn't working, yet you are not seeing an APIPA address, you could be connecting to a honey pot. There are two possible reasons for having two different DHCP servers.
If you're paying your ISP for two ip addresses, you may be getting two addresses on different subnets, which is a perfectly expectable situation for cable broadband. In that case, knowing the IP addresses of both servers should help you identify each server. DNS Servers , on the other hand, provide the ability to resolve the IP address of another computer on the network. If your host configuration specifies a WINS server, you better have one.
Depending upon the value of Node Type, you will have various problems. This will significantly increase latency in many file sharing processes. If Node Type is Mixed , name resolution by Broadcast will be tried first. If the requested computer does not respond to a Broadcast maybe you typed in the name wrong , name resolution will try WINS next.
A cusp node is diamond-shaped. Smooth nodes Used for drawing beautiful, flowing curves. Both handles and the node are aligned on a straight line. Smooth nodes look like ordinary squares. Symmetric nodes. Node Types. There are 12 different node types, which may have children of various node types: Node type.
Represents an element. See more on w3schools. In a nutshell, there are two main types of nodes — full nodes and light nodes. When the WINS server can be reached again, the system returns to p-node. Since p-node is used first, no broadcast messages are generated if the WINS server is running, and computers can be on opposite sides of routers.
If the WINS server is down, b-node is used, so computers on the same side of a router continue to operate as usual. Other combinations Another variation, known as modified b-node , is also used in Microsoft networks so that messages can go across routers. Modified b-node does not use p-node mode or a WINS server. However, each computer must have this list, which creates an administrative burden because the list must be maintained and distributed.
Both Windows for Workgroups 3. In Windows NT, some extensions have been added to this file to make it easier to manage, but modified b-node is not an ideal solution. Some sites might require both b-node and p-node modes. Although this configuration can work, administrators must exercise extreme caution and use it only for transition situations. Since p-node hosts disregard broadcast messages and b-node hosts rely on broadcast messages for name resolution, the two hosts potentially can be configured with the same NetBIOS name, leading to unpredictable results.
Also, if a computer configured to use b-node has a static mapping in the WINS database, a computer configured to use p-node cannot use the same computer name. Proxies are p-node computers. The node type is set to a default during TCP configuration.
The node type can be changed manually by editing the Windows 95 Registry. Below is a very simplified sequence of events: A b-node client will broadcast a request. If a server does not respond, the logon will fail. The m-node and h-node clients do both of these things in the order described above, except that, if the client's workgroup name is the same as the account domain to which the logon is being attempted, the WINS lookup for domain controllers on the local subnet is skipped.
As mentioned above, to ensure that the client is validated by the local domain controller, you must make the workgroup name the same as the domain represented by that domain controller.
