Re: Windows 2000 File Shares Can't Be Accessed

Kurt, FYI I think I just saw this at work but don't know exactly what fixed
it :)

W2000 sharing folder. Running as restricted user.

W2003 with same admin name seeing it.

Added new user (Admin) to W2003 no access (Obviously)

Signed on 2000 as admin, added same username / PW and back to user on 2000.
Went back to W2003

No go...

Went to XP machine, added same user, connect no problem.

Back to W2003 connect no problem.

AFAIK all I did was to connect with the XP machine first and the W2003
started connecting...

The mind boggles...
