Nah, the red X probably isn't related to your problem at all. You'll get a
lot of advice as to how to make the red X go away. It may, or may not, work.
I have some workstations that see the red X from time to time on various
shares and nothing seems to fix it. I have one workstation that has a
constant red X on one share from 30 seconds after boot for the rest of the
day. None of the other workstations have the red X on this share. None of
the red Xes get in the way of sharing though, they're just an annoyance.
This is but one of many problems that Microsoft deems unworthy of fixing. My
biggest pet peeve with Windows is it's inability to estimate time to
completion for progress bars in the GUI. This'n has been there since Win95
and exists in all versions of Windows up to XP. I don't know if it still
exists in 2003, but I suspect it does. I guess MS just doesn't figure it is
worth fixing, but I grow weary of seeing a progress bar that counts down to
zero then claims there's 247819462 miniutes remaining.
