Could be a number of things.
First, SP2 for XP will affect share access. One
of the many security center options (I believe it is the firewall, turned on by
default in SP2) interferes with sharing.
If you have converted to AD, and you are following the
same convention we are, your userID has changed, as has your domain, as well as
the name of the local machine.
our userIDs changed from (in my case, for example)
monahanj to (my AKO ID) jim.monahan
my machine name has changed to code to ID the base,
directorate, division, building, and a serialized number.
Although our Macs are not yet in AD, I changed my Mac
users IDs to conform to the AKO convention, and the machine name to conform to
the AD convention.
A name change would, of course affect permissions,
b/c the Mac is allowing clairborr, not Ronald.Clairborne
As far as non-admin rights....
Not sure what AD user restrictions are set as group
policy by DOIM & higher on the windows boxes.
(The powers that be have elected not to tell us).
I do know some users accounts were changed from the Admin group to the Power
Users group.
I know on our network, I am a domain admin, but
there are some administrative shares
(\\server\D$) I used
to be able to access, but since the AD conversion, I get permission
denied.

Sorry to bother the
list, but I have a problem with a Mac. I'm using OS 10.3 with all of the updates
and Win XP with all updates.
Until recently, I
was using an app on the Mac called "sharepoints" and setting up shares from the
Mac that I could connect to from my XP machine. (The account on the XP box I was
using was in the admin group on the XP box). When I would connect to the share,
the normal user and password box would pop up and I would enter the user name
and password of the admin account on the Mac which owned the
share.
This was all working
fine until yesterday. When I try to access the share, I get an error box that
states that there is a problem accessing the share and that I may not have
permission, etc.....
I noticed this on
the SharePoints site, "
Connect to the share from another machine with a non-admin user "
Did something get
changed in either the Mac or XP OS recently that only lets you connect to a
share on a Mac if the account you are using on the XP box isn't in the admin
group?
Does anyone know a
way around this?
Thanks!!!!
