Re: Server 2000 to 2003 connectivity

We brought a new DC online and had some Group
Policy issues.


If I'm following you right, the fact that the admin account is denied access
to the desktop is what leads you to believe that you are not on the domain.

If so, it may be that you are your servers are actually on the domain doing
what they were set up to do. You "problem" is the account you log in with
gets denied access to the desktop.

That is TOTALLY different than not logging into the domain.

I would guess you made a change in group policy that did this.

Use Google or the MS Knowledgebase to search for access denied to desktop.

Open MMC and add the event viewer from the machine you can't get to the
desktop on and see if there are event ID's that correspond with when you
tried to log in to the problem machine.

Google or search the MS KB for these events.

The file server and Exchange server are both 2000. It logs in, but we
can't
see any domain shares, the domain admin account desktop is not available.
It
it troubling because unless you try to log into the machines, you wouldn't
know anything was wrong. I have also tried to log in remotely and it
tells
me it can't connect to the remote computer. I can ping them though. I am
just at a stand still with this and I don't know what to do.

When the DC's worked correctly together, we noticed about a
week later it wouldn't give access to the 2000 servers to logon to the
domain. One is the Exchange server and all of that is fuctional and
the
other is the File Server, that is also functional. But, when we try
and
log
in as the domain admin account, it says we don't have access to the
desktop
because permission is denied.

One DC is your Exchange server?

One DC is your file server?

You get this problem with both the Exchange server and the File server?

Is the error message that you don't have access to the desktop the
message
that leads you to believe you are not being allowed to log onto the
domain?

THey had worked previously. We brought a new DC online and had some
Group
Policy issues. When the DC's worked correctly together, we noticed
about
a
week later it wouldn't give access to the 2000 servers to logon to the
domain. One is the Exchange server and all of that is fuctional and

Not enough info.

My 2000 servers no longer will come onto the domain of the 2003
DC's.

What do you mean by "come onto the domain"? What do you do to make it
"come
onto the domain" and what happens when you try?

Any errors in event viewer?

All of the
services are running and you can get to the data, but when you try
to
access
them across the network, no joy.

Get to the data? How? What happens when you try? Error messages?

Has it ever worked?
Anything change recently?

They
appear to be functioning, until you try and log into them. All of
the
services are running and you can get to the data, but when you try
to
access
them across the network, no joy. Is there any kind of fix for
something
like
this? Thank you for any assistance.
