Problem with Mapped Drives for Some Users

R

Randy Okum

I have two (2) users on a Windows 2000 network, 1-Win2k
Srvr and Win2k Workstations. What happens is when two
particular users log on, they have access to their
designated mapped drives to the server, they can click on
the mapped drives and see the contents, however, they can
not write to them. The status bar in explore, or the
properties of those mapped drives (when these two are
logged in) display 0 bytes available, and 0 bytes free.
However, when anyone else logs on, the stats of the
drives are normal. What I have done so far, is have the
users log onto a different workstation, the situation
follows them, so I deleted there user accounts on the
server, and created new account, and setting them up
identical to a user that has no problems, the issue still
persist. So I checked, and double checked, local,
domail, and domain controller policy, I can not find
anything out of the ordinary or any thing that would
reflect these users having this problem. All
workstations, are on SP4, all the win2k updates have been
done. Antivirus has been updated, and have performed
full scan on server and a few workstation looking for a
virus, could not find any.

Any help is most greatful

Have you checked NTFS Permissions and Share permissions?

Take one of the file in the share, and do a properties and goto security and
see if they have read permissions atleast to those files. That would be the
first place I would start.
