Re: Can't use WM6 to access network shares

Do the servers Event Viewer logs give any clues as to why the login attempt
failed?

Nope, it's WM2003 2nd ed. My domain name never gets truncated, but it's
pretty short - "vertechs". Strangely enough I can access other shares
like
you can - a share on my workstation shows up fine after I enter my
credentials. I'm not running SBS like you - I'm running regular server
2003.
So this seems to be some kind of issue w/ server shares and WM6? Seems
strange...

Oh, and GO HEELS - FINAL 4 AGAIN!!!

Hmm, I can't get to shares on my SBS2003 either. Don't need this much so
hadn't tried before. Can get to about any other share on the network. I
notice that the login that asks for domain lets me put in my domain, but
when it throws that screen again the domain is truncated. Wonder if
someone
messed up the length of that field.

Is your PPC that works a WM6?

Thanks, Sven. Tried this and get the same error. I actually use Resco
to
map a drive, type in "\\server\share" and fill in the options to log in
as
a
different user. Then I click "Share" and immediately get taken to the
same
credentials screen I would see if I tried to connect to the share using
the
WM6 interface. I type in my password again and get the same error
screen
about cannot find or no permissions.

This is a little frustrating since it works on my other PPC. I know
I'm
entering my creds correctly, and I have all the appropriate
permissions,
but
it's like my login is being rejected for some reason - I just can't
figure
out where it's failing.

Pick up a trial of Resco Explorer and try it using that. I think you
will
find the interface and capabilities nicer in any case.

Hey, I just picked up a new HTC PPC6800 phone for which most
everything
seems
to work correctly except connecting to shared folders on my Windows
2003
server. I seem to have connectivity to the server - I can ping it,
and
when
I try to open the share I get prompted for user credentials. I type
in
my
credentials and click OK, then I get dumped right back to the
credentials
screen repeatedly until I cancel the operation, at which point I get
the
error:

Network resource cannot be found or you do not have permission to
access
the
network.

I've tried 2 different sets of creds, both domain admins, but no
luck.
The
thing is, I can access the share fine from my old HP PPC using
WM2003,
so
I
feel like the problem is on my phone, not the network. I've gone
through
the
settings on the phone, and I guess they look correct - my wireless
card
is
connected and set to "Work"; I can't figure out what the problem is.
Any
ideas?

Thanks,
Chris
