Hi all,
Ok, I'm pounding my head against a wall in frustration with a certain aspect
of Vista. I'm the MIS Manager for a large company and am evaluating Vista as
a potential upgrade to some of our desktops. I've been able to get everything
I need to work in Vista save one thing. We're on a domain here, and when I
log into XP, I use my username/password for the domain to log into my laptop.
From there I have all the access I need to pull up, change, save and create
files to our network drives. Now herein lies my problem. I cannot do this in
Vista. When I log in to our domain, using the same credentials I use in XP,
and try to work with a network file, I can access the drives just fine, but
Vista opens them up as read-only files, will not allow me to save changes to
the network drives and will not allow me to save new files to the network. I
keep getting the same error message - that I do not have sufficient rights to
perform those actions and that I need to contact my system administrator.
Well, I AM the administrator and my login/password has complete access rights
to everything on our network, but not in Vista. Can anyone help me out here?
The machine I'm using is in a dual-boot config, with one being XP and the
other Vista. As I said above, I have no problems when I boot into XP, but
when I boot into Vista I am not allowed to make changes to network files. I
was able to successfully add the Vista boot to our domain.
Any help would be appreciated!!! If I can't get this resolved, I'm going to
recommend against upgrading to Vista.
We're running Server 2003 as our main server platform.
Thanks!!!!
