Enjoy Windows 7 with IPV6

  

Family Group HomeGroup is an application for very small network environments. Many small businesses do not require Active Directory (AD) services or management functions, in which case the family group becomes an alternative to the old domain and workgroup model. Before converting a small network to a HomeGroup, there are some potential issues that need our attention. First of all, the family group is a unique technology of win7. If not set manually, each win7 system is a mini server with its own independent permissions, and non-win7 systems will not be able to access PC resources in the home group. Of course, we can also share the resources on the home group PC to windows XP, vista, mac os x and linux through settings, but I do not recommend this. Because doing so will cause a lot of trouble for your small network. If you really need file sharing across operating systems, you might consider setting up a real server, such as windows 2003, windows server 2008, running Samba on Linux, or using the easiest way to buy a network storage device (NAS). And connect it to your network. Also note that although we can join any win7 version of the family group, whether it is the home version, the professional version, the enterprise version or the flagship version of win7, can only create a family group. In short, you can't simply replace the existing Windows XP peer-to-peer workgroup network with a family group, allowing computers to share resources with each other. Those who have already used IPv4 and open the IPV6 protocol in the home group may have some troubles. This is the case: they open the network connection item of the control panel, right click on the network adapter, and then select Properties to try to enable the IPV6 protocol. Under "Local Area Connection Status" they will see: IPv4 Connectivity: Internet IPV6 Connectivity: No network access Even if IPV6 is turned on, it has no effect. If you are experiencing the same trouble, you can manually set IPV6 by following the steps below: 1. Click the Start button, type regedit in the search box, and then click regedit.exe in the list of programs. In the User Account Control dialog window, click Next. 2. Locate the following key in the Registry Editor: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesTcpip6Parameters 3. Double-click DisabledComponents to modify the DisabledComponents item. 4. Type 0 (number 0) to enable all IPV6 components, click OK 5. Restart the computer Once you are done, you can use the IPV6 protocol in your home group. Enjoy the win7 system with IPV6.
