I believe sharepoint page has been added to browers' settings. And yes, we
tried with 2 different Doc Libs in the same portal (under different
sub-sites). Both have edit right with the document.

OK..
What about browser security settings and adding the
sharepoint page to trusted sites? Already tried out?
Does A and B user has the same rights to the library and/or in sharepoint?
The problem appear in
one library or in more of them?--

The spec for two PCs are the same:
- Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2
- Office XP Service Pack 3
We used the standard/default installation.

Hi,
what os is installed on both workstations? The problem you described is
likely to appear on Vista and Office 2007 and there are some hotfixes
from
MS to solve it.
I would rather suggest to check the browser security settings and adding
the
sharepoint page to trusted sites.

MOSS can use different authentication mechanism - depends on your
configuration, could be Anonymous, Kerberos, NTLM, Basic, Forms...
See some this links:

During deployment MOSS 2007 for my clients, I found a strange scenario
with
Document Library:
1. User A logged in using his domain account to A's PC, and accessed
one
of
the Word document in MOSS's document library. A is able to view it in
Word,
but Word showed that the document is read-only (although A has rights
in
that
library).
2. User B is able to view and edit that particular document in B's PC
(logged in using her domain account). When using B's account on user
A's
PC
("sign in as different user"), B encountered the same problem as A
(view
document as read-only).
3. If A's PC is logged out of A's domain account and logged in using
B's
domain account, the problem is gone. B is able to edit that particular
document (and so is A).
4. Then using the same session on A's PC (with B's account), user A did
a
force log-in using A's account. And the problem is repeated (view as
read-only).
- A and B are on the same domain.
- A and B's PC have more or less same configuration.
I hope the description is clear enough to provide the complete picture.
It's
a must for me to explain why this happens, so really appreciate any
helps.
My guess is this has to be related to MOSS's authentication mechanism
with
NT and web-based. Anyway, I have two questions:
1. Does MOSS always invoke NT authentication when user access its
sites?
2. And when the user doesn't log in as NT domain account, is web-based
authentication be used for authentication?
3. Will domain policies of A and B make difference in this case? I
believe
it does but not sure about the explaination.
Thanks,
Andrey
