Workgroup Share Access

[Guest]

On a workgroup LAN with eleven shared network drives and folders Drive K
(Win 2000 Pro) can see all the other drives and read and write to them, but
none of the drives can see Drive K or read from it or write to it. The
message is "User has not been granted the requested logon type at this
computer" when trying to map a drive to K. Does anyone have an idea what is
happening here and what can be done about it.

Make sure there is a user account on the computer sharing the folder for
each user that needs to map the drive, and that that those users (or group)
have the necessary share and ntfs permissions to read and/or write to the
share. Make sure there is no policy that is preventing a user from accessing
the computer from the network.

As you suggested and for purposes of this investigation I checked all the share permissions and gave every user full access. I went to another computer and tried to map the KATHY computer to drive K:. If I typed in \\KATHY\K as the folder I got the error described above. If I browsed for the KATHY computer under LANGROUP, KATHY showed up but was not able to be expanded to show the K and therefore the OK option was not available. It can't even read the share-as name K that was assigned on the KATHY computer for C$. I'm beginning to suspect that the registry on K has been corrupted. What do you think?
