For those of us who are using IPCop, it looks like it is time that we
either find a solution for this issue - it arose in our district again
last week with two new laptops running Windows 7 - or find a
replacement for IPCop that does not have this issue.
Now, if one of us comes up with a solution we need to agree so share........
Quoting Charlie Niehaus <cnieh...@altamont.k12.il.us>:
I have (soon had I hope) the same issue with Windows 7 and IPCop.
Never did find a solution. There are tohers that did not see the
issue with IPCop and Windows 7 - so I am assuming it is either a
configuration issue with IPCop (Best Bet) or somthing with a switch
along the way. i was lucky enough to solve it by giving the
computer in question an external IP and trusting the user (My
Superintendent) to not break any AUP rules. Not sure how that is
going though.

Subject: [tech-geeks] Vista/7 not connecting to network
I'm hoping somebody on here has experienced this and has a solution
to this very annoying problem. I have a couple of newly purchased
windows 7 machines and a single vista machine that are trying to
connect to get past my Router. DHCP hands out a valid IP and points
to the right places but from there, the Default Gateway doesn't
acknowledge that the machine exists. I can ping and access all
internal servers but can not ping the Default Gateway. FYI, the
Default Gateway is our CIPAFilter that has no problems with XP or
OS X 10.6. Any comments or thoughts as to what might be occurring
would be greatly appreciated.
As always, You stay Classy Internet.
Thanks,
Jared Lynn
