Windows file share in DMZ
-
Good Day people
I have
WAN:x.x.x.0/26
LAN: 192.168.0.0/20
DMZ: 192.168.18.0/24There are a few devices, servers and NAS in the DMZ and they all have the same rules at the moment in the DMZ interface.
I have web access from the LAN to both NAS and windows servers, and RDP to Windows Servers. Also for the file share on \NAS-1\ShareName I have access from the LAN also if I use the NAS IP \192.168.18.x.My problem is that I can not access the windows shared folder.. not with\WinSeverName\ nor with \192.168.18.x <ip addresss="">.
All ports seem to be open for all protocols IP*
What I am missing here?
Thanks</ip>

If they are all on the same LAN segment then I would suggest looking at the machine itself, i.e. go to the advanced sharing options on the server and check there.
The only time I have had problems with Windows, well as far as sharing goes, I've had lots of other problems, is when the something in the sharing options was not configured correctly.
-
Probably the Windows firewall. I think it's set to block traffic from outside the local subnet. Disable it and see if that helps.
-
@KOM, the windows firewall is turned off… the only FW is pfSense and that has IP* open to and from the LAN
@marjohn56, they are on different subnets and all other services work to and from them but the file share.
-
What is the IP and mask of the offending device and the same info from the machine trying to connect to it?
-
Also forgot to ask, the file server is running what Windows OS, and the same question for the client machine?
Just trying to build a full picture.
-
Look at your firewall log and see what is being explicitly blocked and work backwards from there.

@marjohn56
LAN side IP 192.168.1.90 (Win 10 Pro)
DMZ side IP 192.168.18.203 (Win 2012 R2)@KOM
That is just it, nothing is being blocked. For example, the file share on the NAS (192.168.18.202) can be connected to from Win 10 (192.168.1.90). -
And you can RDP to the server from the client?
Can you try creating a share on the client, then connect to it from the server, then try the server from the client again if that works.
-
I am able to RDP to the Windows 2012R2 machine from the Windows 10 machine and the other way around as well….
Can not connect to shares in either direction. -
I have had this issue in the past, drives you nuts.
Here's a thread with lots of users suffering from the same issue and many different 'fixes'.

@marjohn56 sorry to say, but I tried all that was talked about it the link you sent, although I don't think it is applicable to my topology…. thanks for trying to help.
I am still looking for a solution. -
I doubt it's anything to do with the network.

I am still looking for a solution.Can you do a little schematic of the Network.

Hope this helps….
192.168.18.201 and 192.168.18.203 can see each other's sharesFrom 192.168.1.90 I can see the shares on 192.168.18.201
From 192.168.1.90 I can RDP to 192.168.18.203 but the problem is connecting or seeing any shares (\192.168.18.203)
-
Then it's not the router but something on your 192.168.18.203
