networking - Windows 10, can ping other PC but cannot access shared folders! What gives?


I have a computer running Windows 7 that shares a Git repo on drive D. Let's call this PC "win7". This repo is the origin of a project that we push to and pull from.


The network is a wireless network. One PC on this network is running on Windows 10. Let's call this PC "win10". Win10 can ping every other PC on the network including win7. Win7 can ping win10. Win7 can access all shared files on win10. Neither of the PCs have passwords.


Problem: Win10 cannot access any shared files on win7, not from Explorer, nor from Git Bash or any other Git management system (E-Git on Eclipse or Visual Studio). So, win10 cannot pull/push. Every other PC on the network can access win7 shared files and push/pull to/from the shared Git origin.


What's wrong with Windows 10?


I have tried these:




  1. Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Advanced sharing settings\ File sharing is on, Discovery is on, Password protected sharing is off




  2. Adapter Settings\Properties\QoS Packet Scheduler uninstalled and re-installed



  3. Adapter Settings\Properties\File and Printer Sharing uninstalled and re-installed

  4. Adapter Settings\Properties\EVERYTHING uninstalled and re-installed


  5. gpedit.msc\Computer Config\Win Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options:


    Enabled These:



    • Network access: Allow anonymous SID/name translation

    • Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users



    Disabled These:



    • Network access: Restrict anonymous access to Named Pipes and Shares

    • Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts

    • Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares




  6. netsh int ip reset, and then restarted



  7. netsh winsock reset, and then restarted

  8. AdapterSettings\ Enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP

  9. Tried changing to static IP

  10. The new windows 10 Control Panel\ Network Reset

  11. Firewall is turned off


All of these were tried to no avail.



Answer



AT LAAST!! After 4 month, and seeing the error for the second time, I found the solution here:


https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4046019


Turns out, if you type the ip in "Run", and only in "Run", a very specific error shows up that contains this message: "your organization's security policies blocks access..."


Searching that lead me to this solution:


Open "Local Group Policy Editor" by searching in Start Menu or going to Run and running gpedit.msc, then go to Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\network\Lanman Workstation and: "Enable insecure guest logons"


And that solved the problem.

How do I transmit a single hexadecimal value serial data in PuTTY using an Alt code?

I am trying to sent a specific hexadecimal value across a serial COM port using PuTTY. Specifically, I want to send the hex codes 9C, B6, FC, and 8B. I have looked up the Alt codes for these and they are 156, 182, 252, and 139 respectively. However, whenever I input the Alt codes, a preceding hex value of C2 is sent before 9C, B6, and 8B so the values that are sent are C2 9C, C2 B6, and C2 8B. The value for FC is changed to C3 FC. Why are these values being placed before the hex value and why is FC being changed altogether? To me, it seems like there is a problem internally converting the Alt code to hex. Is there a way to directly input hex values without using Alt codes in PuTTY? Answer What you're seeing is just ordinary text character set conversion. As far as PuTTY is concerned, you are typing (and reading) text , not raw binary data, therefore it has to convert the text to bytes in whatever configured character set before sending it over the wire. In other words, when y...

linux - Extract/save a mail attachment using bash

Using normal bash tools (ie, built-ins or commonly-available command-line tools), is it possible, and how to extract/save attachments on emails? For example, say I have a nightly report which arrives via email but is a zip archive of several log files. I want to save all those zips into a backup directory. How would I accomplish that? Answer If you're aiming for portability, beware that there are several different versions of mail(1) and mailx(1) . There's a POSIX mailx command, but with very few requirements. And none of the implementations I have seem to parse attachments anyway. You might have the mpack package . Its munpack command saves all parts of a MIME message into separate files, then all you have to do is save the interesting parts and clean up the rest. There's also metamail . An equivalent of munpack is metamail -wy .

ubuntu - Why does my USB hdd returns SG_IO: bad/missing sense data?

I am able to boot and run commands from external USB hdd; the message in question appears for about 45 seconds then booting continues. GRUB2 is installed on internal HDD. When choosing to boot directly to /dev/sdb the message doesn't appear, however boot time is about the same as booting to internal HDD. /dev/sdb: Timing cached reads: 1018 MB in 2.00 seconds = 508.97 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 80 MB in 3.03 seconds = 26.37 MB/sec pfeiffep@de:~$ sudo hdparm -i /dev/sdb /dev/sdb: SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, sb[]: 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument Gparted correctly identifies the drive as SAMSUNG MP0402H. Any ideas how to remedy the HDIO & SG_IO messages?

Desktop reboots itself on sleep or hibernate

I have been using an ASUS M2NPV-VM motherboard for main home desktop workstation, operating Windows Vista x64. This computer has right from day one not been able to enter hibernate or standby; after Windows performs its final actions and brings the machine down, it would automatically revive itself for a reboot. Updating to the second latest BIOS (1201)has not helped (the latest BIOS revision would induce video refresh problems rendering it unusable). I have been reading related discussions on incidents similar to mine to no avail of a true workable solution. They appear to be more speculative guesses rather than actual knowledge on the inner workings of motherboard hardware. Does anybody have any electronic engineering experience on PC energy-saving standards to provide a more informed opinion how to go about getting this to work? More stories: this motherboard could not even reboot properly the first thing i used it. It was due to refresh rate of the onboard GPU, which had no influe...
