now that's an interesting question... it *is* a domain controller, but
computers both in and out of the domain have been getting this error. All
users have accounts in the domain, but never get a chance to prove it with a
challenge login box. I haven't posted a url because that's not the
methodology that causes the problem. In other words, when folks explicitly
map a drive to \\eclipse\5600, it usually works, but when they open the
network neighborhood, go through the entire network, MS windows network, and
then try to select the domain they get the error. At that point, (I can
verify that my system has this error on my screen right this second) they get
"(domain) is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. contact the administrator of this server to find out if you
have access permissions. No more connections can be made to this remote
computer at this time because there are already as many connections as the
computer can accept." My machine is a member of a domain with a two-way trust
with the domain in question. Is there any way to see *all* the connections
the server thinks it is supporting at any given moment?
