Windows 10: UNABLE TO ACCESS IN HOUSE SERVER FROM LAPTOP - ISSUE JUST STARTED AFTER WORKING FINE

I got this message trying to sign on to my server from my laptop at home. I never had a problem in 10 years till now. I was always able to sign on with my personal account or admin account. How do I correct this issue?


Operating System Laptop: windows 10 home


Server is: SBS 2003 Standard Edition


Error Message:



\\windserver\wind is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.


Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again.

Unable to access my router

That address is a default loopback in the range when it is not statically setup or picking up DHCP. That range works fine for peer-2-peer on a local-level, but is only used when no DHCP server is detected.

You need to point it to your DHCP server or give it a static IP address (recommended) in the IP address range that your DHCP server is managing (your other router/gateway for your site).

So what is handing out IP addresses on your network? A server? A router?

If you want to set this router up as an AP, you made sure DHCP was disabled then correct? I'm assuming it is, but then using DD-WRT (which I have a Hyper-V VM of atm, so I can boot it up and mess around to work through this with u)...you need to make sure your WAN is setup for DHCP as well, or give it a static IP address that's in your network's range.

There are other options yet, but let's get a connection going first.

Need more details about your site's network setup to really know how to help you correctly...all I can do is give blind suggestions based on assumptions. So list out what you have (kind of like you'd want to list out your PC system specs if you were experiencing a crashing/hardware issue and needed help).

 

Remote access to my (local) server's folders

But what if he tries to access this mapped drive when he is not on the same subnet of his server ?
