Windows XP/2003 question

[Rob Meade]

Hi all,

My appologies if this is not the correct group - I was unable to locate a
MS.public win2003 group etc.

I have a windows 2003 server on a small LAN - its a Domain Controller.

I have just joined another client machine to the domain - the server sees
the client - however I am having problems with my shared directory.

I use MS Money on the client machine and want to save the file to the
backups directory on the server - I had achieved this previously before
upgrading to 2003 etc.

I have set the directory in question to be a shared directory, and the
permissions on the both the share and the security tab are set to 'everyone'
/ 'full control'.

I can from the client machine browse to this directory. I can create a .txt
file for example in this directory - however in MS Money when I try to add a
transaction it tells me that it cannot enter that transaction etc -
presumably because of incorrect credentials or a sharing issue.

Has anyone got any information on shares for Windows server 2003? I know
this probably isn't the right group but it looks like it has a wealth of
knowledge - and 2003 seems very similar to XP etc...

Any help appreciated,

Regards

Robb

I can't help you, but I think you should try
<microsoft.public.windows.server>. Someone there should be able to at
least point you in the right direction.

Cheers for the reply - sorry I should have posted back to say that I'd
resolved the problem - I was logging onto the client machine locally instead
of through the domain - doh!

Thanks again for the reply.
