Windows cannot discover any computer or device

Posted: 12-08-2006, 02:24 AM
I am running Vista Enterprise (final version) in a domain environment I have
turned on the Link-Layer Topology Discovery in local gp and domain gpo but I
still get the error "Windows cannot discover any computer or device" I can
browse in explorer to every machine on the network but it seems to want to
communciate with microsoft.com.

I also do not get a full connection to the internet in Network and Sharing
Center. I can see my domain and I can connect to the internet and other PC's
but when I try to repair the connection from domain to internet I get a
"Windows cannot communicate with www.microsoft.com (207.46.19.30) the ping
was successful but there was no response. I know this is because we are
behind a Firewall but surely MS has thought of this and has a way around this?
