Guest MarcusB Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 I am getting crazy. We connected our Windows 2008 to the domain. We made share, give share rights to everyone and in security added users. When we try to connect to the share by: \\Ipnumber\Share$ It not work. What the hell is with Windows 2008? Marcus

Guest MarcusB Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Re: File sharing in Windows 2008 When I disable firewall att all than I can access all shares from another machines in the network but when is enable firewall than it does not work. In simple firewall setting File and printer sharing is enabled in exceptions But there is two entries for File and Printers sharing in Exceptions. In the other one Group Policy is Yes. What should I change in firewall to be able to access all shares on the server??? Marcus Jabez Gan [MVP] wrote: > What do you mean by "not work"? What error? Access is denied?

Guest Jabez Gan [MVP] Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Re: File sharing in Windows 2008 Hey Marcus, In your Windows Server 2008, click Start and type: WF.msc Click Inbound Rules. Under File and Printer Sharing *, make sure that it is set to Enable under Domain Profile. You'll see a few File and Printer Sharing and enable all which is under Domain Profile. -- Jabez Gan Microsoft MVP: Windows Server http://www.msblog.org "MarcusB" <marcusb@llunet.se> wrote in message news:eBcWSW8mIHA.4076@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > When I disable firewall att all than I can access all shares from another > machines in the network but when is enable firewall than it does > not work. > > In simple firewall setting File and printer sharing is enabled in > exceptions > But there is two entries for File and Printers sharing in Exceptions.

Guest MarcusB Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Re: File sharing in Windows 2008 The problem is that I can not change rules responsible for file sharing for Domain Profile from ws.msc. When I try it, than it says the rules was modified by System Administrator and can not be modified, and everithing is grayed. How to modified it??? It does not matter if I logged as domain Admin or local Administrator. Regards Marcus.

Guest Jabez Gan [MVP] Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Re: File sharing in Windows 2008 Hey Marcus, Please try the following: 1. Open GPMC.MSc 2. Navigate to Default Domain Policy (Or create a new poliicy) 3. Under the Action, select Edit. 4. Group Policy Editor will open. Navigate to Windows Firewall with Advanced Security - LDAP://<DN> 5. Click Inbound Rules 6. Create a New Rule which allows the File and Sharing. Sorry for the earlier confusion - we can't modify a domain profile's policies through WF.msc. -- Jabez Gan Microsoft MVP: Windows Server http://www.msblog.org "MarcusB" <bafi@linux.nu> wrote in message news:u6t9T6$mIHA.4196@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Jabez Gan [MVP] wrote: >> Hey Marcus, >> >> In your Windows Server 2008, click Start and type: >> WF.msc >> >> Click Inbound Rules. >> >> Under File and Printer Sharing *, make sure that it is set to Enable >> under Domain Profile.

Guest MarcusB Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Re: File sharing in Windows 2008 I am realy confused now. You writing about LDAP but it is not whole domain security problem because we can share files from all other machines running windows 2003, Xp etc. Do I need download GPMC.MSC like we done in Windows 2003? Can the problem be caused that I am running Hyper-V on that machine? Why microsoft done everything so complicated. I thing that if I want to share file its mean that Windows should open firewall automatically. It is not in my case. I will try more tonight, I closed myself now by reseting Firewall rule, and I can not access my server from home by remote desktop. But maybe there is the way to remote open firewall for remote desktop. MarcusB Jabez Gan [MVP] wrote: > Hey Marcus, > > Please try the following: > > 1. Open GPMC.MSc > 2.

Guest MarcusB Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Re: File sharing in Windows 2008 It was like that simple before connecting the server to the domain. After I connected to the domain firewalls rules stoped access to all shares on our Windows 2008 server. I did not use Group Policies at our domain att all before, therefore I was very surprised that Microsoft complicated everything in Windows 2008. I just tested now to run GPMC.msc on our domain controller and checked that rules for firewall was never activated, I changed and enabled this rules and after forcing policies, share become usable again. Really shame Microsoft. I spent two days fighting with such small problem.

Interesting. My windows 2008 server is also joined to a domain, and again, I did not encounter these issues for some reason. I have not touched firewall settings or group policy since I set up my 2008 server.
