AS THE ADMIN I LOADED A PROGRAM CALLED CODA-FINANCIALS ON
A WIN-XP MACHINE. CODA-FINANCIALS HAS IT'S OWN LOGON AS
WELL. I WANT ANY "NON-ADMIN" USER THAT LOGS IN WITH
THERE DOMAIN (WIN2000SERVER) NAME/PASSWORD TO BE ABLE TO
THEN LOG IN TO CODA.

WHEN THEY ATTEMPT TO LOG INTO CODA THEY GET THE FOLLOWING
ERROR MESSAGES;
1. COULD NOT FIND SERVER ON THE NETWORK
2. COULD NOT FIND THE SPECIFIED HOST ON THE NETWORK
3. SERVER ADDRESS REGISTRY SETTINGS MAY BE BLANK OR
MISSING. PLEASE CHECK WITH CODA-CONFIGURE.

I HAVE TRIED A NUMBER OF THINGS. EVERYTHING FROM SHARES
TO PERMISSIONS TO REGISTRY PERMISSIONS.

IF THE MACHINE IS LOGGED INTO AS ADMINISTRATOR, THEN
ANYONE CAN LOG INTO CODA WITH THEIR PERSONAL LOGON.

AGAIN HAS ANYONE HAD SUCH A PROBLEM? THANKS

1) Don't type in all capital letters - it is considered shouting and
rude and is hard to read. 2) Some older software, particularly niche
software, was originally written for DOS and/or older Windows operating
systems and doesn't understand the permissions setup of an NT-based
system (like WinXP). In these cases, the best thing to do is 1) contact
the maker of your software for a fix; 2) or resign yourself to the fact
that if you want some users to run this ill-designed software you must
give those users administrative privileges.

HTH,

Hi,
We are also facing the issue. We have taken image of the server and restored in a VM. Even for administrator we are getting same error. Can anyone help please.
Thanks.
