I installed access on a new workstation. I connect to both the server and
the workstation via PCAnywhere.
The access database is linked to security.mdw and resides on the server,
along with the backend. I put the frontend also into the same location for
the purpose of copying it to the user's computers.
I double checked and the FE it is linked to the Security.mdw on the server.
When I copy the front end from the server to the workstation it shows the
user and group permissions as locked and the workgroup administrator does
not even show. Therefore I cannot join any other workgroup. I logged into
the workstation with my name, the one who ownes the database. When I check
the user and group accounts, I can see, that the database must now be linked
the the default microsoft system.mdw because there are no users, except
admin and user. I tried putting the security.mdw into the shortcut, but that
did not help. The security is locked.
I copied the same FE to another workstation tonight and without a problems.
I cannot figure out, why I cannot get this workstation to work.
I am the administrator of the entire network. I logged into the workstation
with my name and I have access to everything on the server, so I don't think
it is a windows security issue.
Cannot figure out what is happening here. It is not a matter of lost
security. Why can this be happening?
Help,
