Hello, although I googled a lot I was unable to find a solution to this issue. It just appears many others have this issue... I have a network with 2 pc's and one has windows professional sp3 and the laptop has Win Vista Home Basic. They share some folders properly and without any trouble. I often use them in a gateway to gateway vpn ipsec connection between two routers in two different houses but I have been unable to use the remote shutdown command between the remote systems. The remote shutdown between vista and xp works flawlessly but I can't get the xp to vista remote shutdown configuration working. No way...firewall disabled, remote registry access service enabled and running but I always receive the "unable to find network path" error. Both respond to ping in either ways and shared folders are accessible! I am turning out crazy about it! I tried via command line and via GUI interface: network path not found! Has anyone got it running and working or is it impossible on a Vista Home Basic edition? I also tried to access the laptop via compmgmt.msc console to no effort. If I try to connect to the other pc it says " win 32 access denied"... Therefore I am starting to wonder if it can be a restriction of winvista home basic edition. Can anyone help? TIA, Stefano |
