Do you have a switch for the lan side, or all yours client pcs are direct
connect to the m0no ?
Do you have activated the xp firewall or another fw soft on pcs ?

Try first to close any pc fw. The m0no, I means is not the problem.

Best regards

Subject: [m0n0wall] m0n0 and xp access permissions

Hi there, I have v lame question, maybe not so m0m0 related but maybe
someone may help, tried to find solution but failed :( Since I have monowall
as the router i cant access files and printers on my xp machines. There is 3
computers in the network, one with the printer. Before i had machine with
the printer acting as a small router, sharing connection from usb modem with
manually typed in ip addresses on each machine. I plugged in monowall into
the network, simple setup factory default with PPPoE plus DHCP server and i
assigned IP to each machine MAC but each computer have Obtain IP address
automatic in the XP. When tried to access View workgroup computers I'm
getting the msg saing that maybe i have no permission to access the network
but i changed nothing, just to obtain address automatically and that's it.
The same with the printer i can't print by the network. Looks like i can't
access shared resources only internet connection, is there anything i should
do in monowall  to make it working ? Just got it to see how is it, didn't
really play with it yet but main problem now is access on the network.

Thanks for any help :)
