Re: Unable to access local workstations from SBS 2003



When you connect to any Windows box it checks to see if you have a user name and password that it knows - either in its local user database or the servers user database (if in a domain). If there is no match then ther is no connection allowed.

Is the laptop definitely part of the domain? (when logging onto the laptop the domain name is definitely displayed - click the Options button if you dont see the domain box). Have you tried logging into the laptop as another domain user then trying to connect?

Note if you kept the same domain and server name you still need to rejoin to the new domain even if the name is the same.

We just installed SBS 2003 replacing a Windows 2003 Server as our main server. Now, FROM the SBS2003 server I can't get to the local workstations. That is, if I do a "\\Local01" from the servers Windows Explorer, I get "\\Local01 is not accessible. You might not have permissions to use this network resource... Logon Failure: User has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer."
I'm setup as a Power User on the server. I can browse/explore the server folders from the workstation, but I can't get TO the workstation (or copy/paste) from the server. We have a small network of less than 10 users.
What do I need to do? Seems simple as we were fine before the migration from Win2K to Win2K3. [We replaced the old server with the same server name and domain name, reconnected the workstations to the new domain and thought we were fine until THIS....]
