Hello Dave,

I don't understand exactly what you mean. When I try to reach the
administrative share I get a logon-screen because I'v got no rights on
the share, but then I logon with the domain-admin credentials and this
secondary logon seems not to work?

It's o.k. for me to have not direct rights via my actually logged on
credentials, but the secondary logon doesn't work.

Do I missunderstand something?

Thanks Alfred
