Re: Can No Longer Access Shares Remotely

Are you 100% sure of that it's not any permissions you have forgot to set on
the folder? Start with granting autenticated users fullcontrol and don't
restrict the folder with NTFS permissions. If Autenticated users have full
controll on the shared folder every user whos authenticated to the domain
will be able to reach the share. Try this and respond. Maby you are setting
to tight NTFS permissions on the shared folder, just a guess.

Hello--

If I use the ip address the same thing happens. All of the shared resources
open on the target PC, however when I try to open the shared folder, I get
the error that I posted earlier.

The DNS on the new server is correct and the DNS records for that machine
are correct on our DNS server.

There is one more observation that might help. I can open shares on the
server from the remote PC's. So the shared permissions, etc are going from
the PC to the server, but not the server to the PCs.

Can you think of anything else this can be?

Thanks,

Hello razor,

What happens if you use \\ipaddress\share ? Did you check DNS settings on
the new machine and also that it is registered in your DNS server correctly?

Hello--

We have some shared folders on external hard drives connected to PCs
running WXP that we use to store archived data onto. These PCs are on
different subnets and accessed remotely via an MPLS WAN.

There is a server running W2K3 in our network that has a scheduled
task to drop data into the shared folders on these remote computers
periodically. It has done this task for over a year with no issues.

Recently we replaced the server that is scheduled to drop the data
into the remote shares and now it cannot access the shares. In fact,
no machine in our network can access the shares any longer. I will
post the error we are getting below, but I wanted to mention that
there is plenty of storage space, and permissions are not the issue.
As a troubleshooting effort, we unshared the folders, rebooted the PCs
and then shared the folders again with the appropriate permissions.

Again, the problem started when we replaced a server in our network
but made no changes to the PC's where the shared folders are hosted.
Here is the error we get:

"\\server\share 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. Not enough server storage is
available to process this command."
