In a workgroup, you need to create identical usernames & passwords
on the 'server' computer to match what is used on the clients. Do
you have a user called Joanna on the file server, with a password
that matches Joanna's on *her* computer? Create one....and see
whether the problem recurs.
Yes, indeed, Joanna has a log-in account on the server with a
password that matches hers on her laptop. I've successfully logged-in
over the LAN to her server account using a Mac laptop and logged-in
to her account locally, on the server itself, using the very same
username and password. This is why I believe the username/password
are functional on the file server. I've been entering the same
username and password v-e-r-y c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y on the laptop. I can
be logged-in as her on her XP laptop, and mount the LAN share using
_my_ username and password, but when I try to mount the LAN share as
Joanna, the Connect to... window redraws with the computer name and a
backslash inserted before her username, over and over and over again.
Other idea/s?
What are the permissions set on a) the share and b) the folder (NTFS) on the
server?
