In my company's physical office, there is no domain controller setup, just a bunch of computers ranging from Windows XP to Windows 10 that are all part of the same workgroup in the same LAN. These computers can access shared folders on other computers in the network by logging with user accounts that exist on those computers. With me so far?
Problem: I've set up a VPN through the router (netgear router with openvpn client), and I can see the shared folders on "Most" computers. I'm using Windows XP Professional, and inside the VPN I can access computers that are Windows XP or newer. I'm getting a local IP address from the router's DHCP and all that seems perfect. But I'm having I'm having problems accessing Windows 2000 computers. I try to log in and receive the error "STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE". I'm typing the correct username and password, and just can't figure out why it's not working.
I'm using Wireshark to analyze the packets and can't really see anything in there that is that much different in the SMB communication between these machines, and I'm not really sure where to start. Since XP machines in the same office behind the same router can access Windows 2000 machines, but I can't through the VPN, it seems the problem might have something to do with that. Any tips on how to trouble-shoot this?
Thanks!
I found the solution. It had to do with this registry setting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\lmcompatibilitylevel
On all machines in the office, this value was set to 0. If I set mine to 0, I can login fine. Of course, the REAL problem is that 0 seems pretty out-dated and insecure, so now I'll need to review whether all the old machines in the office can support a NTLMv2 so I can update that, but that's a different issue. So this is SOLVED.

I'm wondering if its possible to host a Minecraft server on my PC and have my wife connect to that server without any internet connection. We are willing to get a router/modem or switch if need be. We just can't use internet and need instructions on what to get, how to set it up, and how to use it. My hope is that it is possible to have our computers in the same room, plug our PCs into a router that has no internet service via Ethernet cables, turn on the server on my PC, my wife can type in the IP and we can play together.
Yes you can. I am running a Minecraft server on a separate Linux machine, and me and my brother connect to the Minecraft server from separate computers, all of it from our own wireless LAN and without an Internet connection.
We are using a WiFi router that is not connected to the Internet, the computer running the server is an old laptop, and then we have two additional computers, each running an instance of Minecraft, and it all works fine.
I'm not sure about using only a network switch, because you need to be connected at the IP layer, since you need to specify the internal, private IP address of the computer running the Minecraft server from the Minecraft client in order to join.
So in a nutshell, you will need to download and install the Minecraft server, install the latest Java OpenJDK, run the Minecraft server, read the eula, and last in order for this to work completely offline (that is, we want this to work without an Internet connection), you will need to go into the Minecraft server configuration file, locate the property of online-mode=true and set it to online-mode=false.
This setting basically controls whether or not players authenticate to Mojang's servers before they connect to your server, and it prevents players with cracked clients from connecting to your server, but since you will be hosting and joining from within an internal, private network anyways it does not matter. No one will be connecting to your server from the outside world if there is not a connection to the Internet anyway.
For more details about how to install and run a Minecraft server, there are many guides out there. It's actually pretty simple, if you're comfortable using a console screen and know just a little bit about IP addresses and editing a configuration file with a text editor. For me, I run the Mi ecraft server and I was able to connect to it with my brother and start playing right away, without having to mess around with the server at all.
So there you have it, I hope this helps someone.
The very definition of a server is something that provides resources over the internet:
A server is a computer program or a device that provides functionality for other programs or devices, called "clients", over the Internet.
There is a way that would work the way you intend, but without Ethernet, it runs over WiFi. Go into a world, open the Pause menu, and click Open to LAN. Then you can go to a server menu on another computer and it will show up in the LAN Worlds section. However, this will only run vanilla gameplay.
Just FYI, this question would be considered off-topic here and should be asked in the Gaming or Networking communities.
EDIT: Opening to LAN would work over ethernet too.

In the features of windows 7 we have both telnet client and telnet server. But in windows 10 telnet server is not available, Can anyone please guide on how to install it? And I am also aware that we can use ssh instead of telnet.
Microsoft deprecated Telnet Servers in Windows Server 2012 R2, and subsequently in Windows 10.
Telnet is considered completely insecure these days, because it sends everything across the wire in plain text, so they removed it.
Since you'd need to install a 3rd party Telnet server, you should (instead) consider installing a SSH server. Similar abilities and results, but SSH is generally considered secure.
Perhaps check out this Serverfault question for some suggested SSH servers:
What is a good SSH server to use on Windows?
(Answer from #Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 found HERE)
I know I am a tad late to this feed, but I have used the GSW Telnet Server and SSH Server and they have been great. They claim to be the most secure SSH on the market and I have never had any issues with data security at all.
They do have 24/7 support and can help with installation if there are any difficulties.
Hope this helps - Ben

Currently we are implementing to use POP3 / IMAP service for flexibility of mail clients.
We are also overlooking on mobiles to be able to access via internet.
We have successfully configured the POP3 / IMAP service and tested already.
Now, the main issue when connecting to the SMTP server. I am planning to
publicly publish an open STMP relay but with user authentication.
Mail Client (e.g. IMAP) --> Internet --> Firewall ---> Email Server (Relay Host to) --> Microsoft Exchange Online Protection --> External Domain
Right now I was able to test the SMTP service using telnet domain.com 25 it was successfully and having reply from ehlo / helo command.
But via on the internet the command or connection reply only with *************** or unrecognized command.
We have already disable SMPT checking or fixup on firewall equipment still no good.
I am thinking to use the Microsoft Exchange Online Protection as alternative relay agent.
But how do I configure the Microsoft EOP and mail client on this? Or can you recommend alternative solution.
Thank you.

I have a Raspberry Pi running Debian 7 (Wheezy) connected on "Site A", where the network is managed by a third-party company and where all ports are closed to the Internet (for security reasons). So, there is no way for me to do any port forwarding to VNC, nor SSH or anything else. That means I just can't access it in any way other than locally, on-site.
However, I need to connect to that device on the X Desktop session (graphical interface) to do some maintenance, and I am located in let's say "Site B", which is nearly 300 miles away from site A.
I know you can do such tasks on Windows or x86 Linux computers with TeamViewer (we use it for our other hardware in the same location and it works like a charm), but since the Raspberry Pi is based on an ARM architecture, it isn't supported by TeamViewer yet.
If anyone has ever achieved this, I would be glad to hear how to do it!
Since you have no ssh access, I can safe you from going on site A once.
I would setup a reverse ssh tunnel for ssh and VNC to a computer on the raspberry:
nohup ssh -N -R 3000:localhost:22 you#site-b &
nohup ssh -N -R 3001:localhost:5900 you#site-b &
You might implement some "watchog" which reconnects the tunnels if they should get disconnected for some reason. I assume that a VNC server is already running on the raspberry.
On site B you can now use:
ssh -p 3000 localhost # ssh to raspberry.
or VNC to the raspberry using localhost:3001

I have a webserver running on my Windows XP computer. I have set the firewall to allow incoming HTTP connections: Firewall settings window->'Advanced' tab->select my network connection->Settings->Services->check 'Webserver(HTTP)' checkbox.
Normally, this works. However, sometimes upon restarting the server machine, the firewall again begins blocking HTTP connections, notwithstanding the fact that the 'Webserver(HTTP)' exception is still checked in the Firewall settings window.
The only way, then, to get things working again is to uncheck the said option, save the settings, reopen the firewall dialog and check the option and save again.
My question is, is this some peculiarity of my machine or is this a Windows XP firewall bug?
No, that's not a bug, you're just misunderstanding what the Services tab is for.
The list on that tab are for the scenario where the firewalled system also serves as a NAT gateway ("Internet Connection Sharing" or whichever name Microsoft came up with) for another computer. It's basically a form of DNAT. It controls whether or not to allow the initiation of connections to that port through to hosts running on a private network behind the firewalled system.
What you need is to add an exception for port 80 / TCP on the Exceptions tab (don't forget to click on Change scope and select the appropiate scope!) That will work without a hitch. I also recommend you uncheck what you checked ASAP since Windows client operating systems aren't particularly suited for packet forwarding and settings on that tab sometimes mysteriously interfere with normal network traffic (like in your case.)
