Win2003 Server domain rights for file/shares from SBS

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



We have one SBS2003 server and another Win2003 R2 server that is joined to the SBS domain. All desktops (WinXP) can do what I want, but the server with 2003 R2 can not. What I want to do is create a share, and set permissions and file security to domain users.

When I go into Security to add a user or group, under "Locations" all I have as an option is that specific machine, I can not select the DC (similar to a workstation that is NOT joined to the domain). On this said Win2003 R2 server I am logging in as the domain administrator.

Yet on XP I have no problems doing this. Is this a caveat to having Win2003 R2 Server on a SBS domain, or is there another issue that the R2 has? Is there some additional step I need to do for this R2 that I do not need for desktop clients?

Basically for this certain software to work on this application server I need to create a share that I want only domain users to be able to access.
