| 391129 | 2005-09-26 21:46:00 | Hi – need some advise please on Zone Alarm and a 2 computer home network. Cannot access the other computer while Zone Alarm is on – tried these settings: Trusted zone – slider on low (says firewall is off). Internet Zone Security – slider on high. Turn off Zone Alarm and no probs with access! Know it will be something simple?! Many thanks |

| 391131 | 2005-09-26 23:26:00 | YOU NEED to tell zone to allow certain ip ranges..........goto firewall then zone tab then 'add'....... | drcspy (146) | ||
| 391132 | 2005-09-26 23:29:00 | Sorry should have included these: XP Pro on my PC and XP on the other one, Network: Ethernet 802.3. Protocols – not sure what to look for here – does this help - Name CA ISafe LSP over [MSAFD Tcpip [TCP/IP]] Belkin Router – wireless but use Cat 5 for the other PC. Lets know if need anything else – and where to get it! Really appreciate the assistance on this. Cheers |

| 391133 | 2005-09-26 23:31:00 | not always, it depends on the network setup. some thing i forgot to ask before, what ver of ZA, free, pro and ver number ?? does the network work if you change the internet zone to medium? |

| 391134 | 2005-09-26 23:51:00 | Think it is Pro – paid for it – v 6.0667. Can access the other computer from mine if turn internet zone to medium but still cannot access my computer from the other one in this mode! Thanks |

| 391135 | 2005-09-27 00:09:00 | you need to add your gateway i.p address and the the other computers i.p address in the trusted zone and make the trusted zone security on medium. :cool: | monkyduderan (8955) | ||
| 391136 | 2005-09-27 00:21:00 | OK thanks for that and excuse my ignorance but where do I find the gateway IP address and the other computer IP address? Cheers |

| 391137 | 2005-09-27 00:36:00 | it might be simpler to use ipx/spx for the windows networking as it bypasses all the firewalls and dosn't require ip addys. | tweak'e (69) | ||
| 391138 | 2005-09-27 00:45:00 | Do you have a shared(across the network) folder on each PC? To change the IP settings Control Pannel > Network Connections > Right click the Local Area Connection > Properties > Double click Internet Protcol(TCP/IP) |
