TLDR: I had this working two days ago, my laptop's hard drive crashed & has been replaced, now I can't map to my 8TB drive that's attached to my router via USB.
For months (since Covid started & I've been WFH) I've been using an 8TB drive attached to my router via USB for storage, backup, etc. for my work files. My hard drive died in my Dell laptop a couple of days ago and has been replaced by IT today. Now that I have it home, I can't connect to the drive like I had before. I should be able to just open File Explorer in Win10 and enter \\192.168.1.1 and browse for shares. I can see that the shares exist on the drive via the router's web interface (Linksys 1900 AC WRT), but I can't get to the drive to access them. I'm connected to the same network as before (my home WIFI), my Macs and Roku can see the drive no problem, it's just this new install of Win10 on the new drive.
It's been a long day, and I'm bleary eyed, so I know I'm just missing something stupid, but I could use your guy's help figuring out what it is I'm missing.
The error message I get when trying to connect with the UNC above is:
Network Error
Windows cannot access \\\192.168.1.1\
Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise there might be a problem with your
network. To try to identify & resolve network problems, click Diagnose.
Details drop down:
Error code 0x80004005
Unspecified error.
I'm going to try #rzlvmp suggestion to enable SMB V1 and see what happens.
Guess No.1
That is possible that your router use samba v1. SMBv1 disabled on new windows versions. But you can enable it

I use CheckPoint VPN to log in to my place of work's servers to work remotely. The VPN has been working (mostly) fine all year, and I haven't changed any of the settings, but this morning, when I tried to log in, it's giving me the "Arg_NullReferenceException." I can't seem to find anything on this particular error on google.
I have tried restarting my computer, because it's not the first issue I've had with CheckPoint VPN (though it is the first time I've seen that error message), and a restart usually resolves whatever issue I'm having. I've also tried creating a new connection with the same settings, but I'm getting the same error with that one, too.
I'm not entirely sure what other information I would need to provide. I'm also not sure if it's a problem on my end, or on the company servers. I have already emailed tech support, but I thought I should be thorough.
This is a known issue. I have been jumping through hoops trying to get the capsule client to work. Raise a ticket with TAC if you have support. If not then you can download the E86 Endpoint connect client and run it. That has been my work around for this issue.
They just issued an update to the Capsule via the Microsoft Store. It seems one of the recent Windows Security Update broke the L2TP protocol within windows.
I'm currently using AutoHotKey to create a variety of macros. I have two desktops side-by-side in a private (home) network. It is my desire to have the AHK Run command on PC1 make some sort of call to PC2. Both PCs are running Windows 10 (non-domain), and both use the same login credentials (same account via microsoft.com).
What I've tried: I have tried a few things, such as WMI, WinRM, schtasks. Each of these options work when dealing with non-interactive scripts. I am trying to call scripts that a) open GUI windows or b) send key strokes to PC2.
Other requirements:
The solution cannot require the password to be type in a prompt nor provided in the command-line call. The desired effect is that I press a button on my keyboard -> ahk command triggers -> script on PC2 is called.
As this network is shared with roommates (and whoever they allow to connect to our wifi), basic security is still a necessity.
This is not a language specific question - I am looking for the simplest/easiest/cleanest method. Thanks for reading.
Try a remote access connection app like TeamViewer. They allow you to control one PC from another across a network. https://www.teamviewer.com/en/
I have an astronomical observatory in my yard with four computers connected to all the observatory equipment. These four computers are controlled over my home network from one PC in the house.
The remote access app allows you to run an .exe on another computer which in my case is usually a compiled AHK script.
I have a number of tasks that require several PC's. A script running on the main PC will start secondary scripts on the observatory PC'c which in turn will send messages back and forth by sending text files to each others shared files. The PC receiving the text file will perform a specific action based on the message.
Here's a link to the observatory startup procedure. I a startup script on the main PC which turns on all the observatory equipment then starts a secondary startup script on each of the observatory PC's to load and position all the software and then connect all the cameras and associated equipment.

This just shows how the various scrips running on the observatory PC's load and position all the various app windows. Not exactly what you may need but it may give you some ideas about what you can do with the remote access software.

I recently updated my IDE to Monodevelop 6 using Flatpak, on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, from an older version 5.
I have an application that interacts with serial ports which is basically a USB/RS232 adapter connecting a device to my computer.
I have no issue accessing USB port (/dev/ttyUSB0) when I debug the application in Monodevelop5. However, the device directory (/dev/) that I have access to, using Monodevelop6 is completely different than the one I have access to in Linux, and there is no ttyUSB0 in that folder.
I believe this is because Flatpak runs the application in sandbox. So, if that is the reason, how can I access to a serial port then?
Thanks.
Most likely that's because Flatpak is blocking access to the serial device.
Unfortunately at the moment I don't think there is a way to give access specifically to the serial devices, so you'd need to give access to all:
$ flatpak run --device=all com.xamarin.MonoDevelop
What this does is essentially mount the host's /dev inside the sandbox, so the app has full access to it.
It's a pretty big hole in the sandbox, but sometimes it's needed until all the permission handling stuff gets implemented.
I have a VMWare Player (Workstation 9 )virtual machine on an Ubuntu 12.10 (13.10 Kernel) host running Ubuntu 12.04 using a bridged connection and set to replicate the physical network connection. Everything usually works properly in a variety of locations. But at one location that I often frequent, the ip address of the virtual machine changes roughly every 10 minutes -rendering the vm entirely useless as it is a postgresql server and thus needs a dedicated local ip. Not only that, but when I copied a database dump into a shared folder, the file ended up getting corrupted.
I can verify that the network caused this problem, as the actual on the vm was not corrupted. I managed to temporarily solve the problem by going into a local modem and setting a DHCP Mac Address. Everything was working and files were not getting corrupted. However, it only lasted temporarily, and another random address was assigned, breaking several running processes on my machine. Between the router/gateway, there is a redundant apple router involved in the network that is likely causing the issue -but I cannot just throw it away or deactivate it, as it is not my network
Furthermore, DHCP leases work just fine for every other machine on the network; so
I believe the root issue is with vmware.
I have no clue what could possibly cause something like this to occur, as IP address assignment is one of those things that normally "just works". I am thinking about just switching to VitualBox, as I have used it in the past and never had a problem (except with properly running Windows 8. However,I have never actually seen any article suggesting VirtualVox over WMWare, as the latter supposedly performs better and has more intuitive shared folder support. Obviously though, any benefit from a shared folder is negated if it just shares corrupt garbage.
So you manually set a MAC address on your VM? In the past, I've seen VM's change MACs quite often; generally only after a reboot or cold start. It shouldn't happen on the fly... You could install Wireshark and grab a few packet captures to see if anything in there points you in the direction of the root cause.
i want to read MAC address of machine from Adobe AIR. I am using flex 3 and AIR 2.
how can i do this
the main purpose is i want to install that product in only one machine
var ni:NetworkInfo = NetworkInfo.networkInfo;
var interfaceVector:Vector.<NetworkInterface> = ni.findInterfaces();
Taken from the Network Info sample in the desktop version of Tour de Flex.
As far as I can tell, you cannot do it with Flex/AIR alone - you can however use the NativeProcess API to communicate with a Java/C program that can do this for you.
If you want to limit your application to just one machine, why don't you just install it manually without giving away the setup file - is it a remote machine? Even in that case you should be able to do a remote installation, right?
The answer "track the combination of IP address and user ID" won't satisfy my (very similar) needs. If the (laptop) computer is moved across WiFi domains, its IP address will change. If the computer is on a commerical IP provider, the IP address can often change without warning or notice.
My users don't want to deal with such problems. They don't even want to know that these problems exist!
The binding of MAC address and user ID can be done at installation time. It's not perfect, but it's pretty good.
Of course what we need is an implementation of public-private key...
