What do you do when you need the answer to a ques\u00adtion and Google does\u00adn\u2019t deliv\u00ader? Ask on the blog of course\u2026 I would really like to know the answer to this one, as it would save a large amount of irrit\u00ada\u00adtion and I assume oth\u00aders have the same prob\u00adlem. I\u2019ve spent hours bur\u00adied deep in search engine res\u00adults with no luck. <\/p>\n
As befits a fam\u00adily with jobs in the com\u00adputer industry, we have a few com\u00adputers spread around the house, all con\u00adnec\u00adted with a decent home net\u00adwork and pro\u00adtec\u00adted with a good Linux-based fire\u00adwall (which also serves this blog). The com\u00adputers run a num\u00adber of oper\u00adat\u00ading sys\u00adtems \u2014 Win\u00addows 2000, Win\u00addows XP<\/span>, Mac OS<\/span> X, Sol\u00adar\u00adis. The prob\u00adlem only appears with the Win\u00addows XP<\/span> boxes \u2014 or rather, between them. For some reas\u00adon, one Win\u00addows XP<\/span> box can\u00ad\u2019t see all the files and folders on the oth\u00ader Win\u00addows XP<\/span> box, although they\u2019re quite vis\u00adible from both Win\u00addows 2000 and OS<\/span> X. The odd thing is that some files and folders are vis\u00adible, often some files in a giv\u00aden folder will be vis\u00adible but the oth\u00aders won\u2019t, and to my eye there are no dif\u00adfer\u00adences in secur\u00adity set\u00adtings, own\u00ader\u00adship, or ACLs. Mind you, I\u2019m obvi\u00adously miss\u00ading some\u00adthing some\u00adwhere or I\u2019d be able to see all those files from every machine in the house! I tried copy\u00ading some of the files to new dir\u00adect\u00ador\u00adies; some\u00adtimes that lets me see them across the net\u00adwork, and some\u00adtimes it does\u00adn\u2019t. I have no idea what set\u00adtings are being put in place to stop me look\u00ading at such dan\u00adger\u00adous files as .css and .html in par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar dir\u00adect\u00ador\u00adies; the sys\u00adtem seems capri\u00adcious \u2014 as does any sys\u00adtem when you haven\u2019t figured out the rules by which it oper\u00adates. The innate abil\u00adity of the human brain to fig\u00adure out pat\u00adterns has decidedly failed me in this instance.<\/p>\n Help would be much appre\u00adci\u00adated, not only for me but for the rest of the fam\u00adily who have to put up with my imprec\u00ada\u00adtions each time I want to trans\u00adfer files from one box to the oth\u00ader, only to find that they\u2019re not vis\u00adible from the box I want to trans\u00adfer them to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What do you do when you need the answer to a ques\u00adtion and Google does\u00adn\u2019t deliv\u00ader?
