Hi,
I have 3 PC's using a Telkom Mega 100WR2 router. The router connects to the internet and is using a static IP of 10.0.0.2 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The DHCP server is turned off.
DHCP is being provided by the Fedora 12 machine (Static IP: 10.0.0.6, gateway: 10.0.0.2). All 3 PC's successfully connect to the router, receive and IP address (the 2 windows machines) and can connect to the internet. That is not the problem (phew
).
The problem is that the Win7 & Win XP machines cannot see each other or the Fedora machine. The Fedora machine cannot see the Win7 box but can see the Win XP one.
Win 7 can successfully ping the Win XP and Fedora machines but can't access them (even using their IP's). Win 7 can access Fedora via a web browser (Fedora is running a webserver).
This is driving me mad as I want to share music, a printer and documents and I can't.
Any help is appreciated, my eyes are sore from trawling networking forums.
