I cannot access the CDROM or floppy drives of the two domain controllers in the domain. These are both Windows 2000 Servers. Since I was terminaled into the machines, I thought maybe it was because the security policy that restricts CDROM access to only locally logged in users was in effect. I located the policy in the Domain Controllers Security Policy and Disabled it. Still no access. Then I found out that even logged on locally as the enterprise administrator did not grant me access. It merely says "Access is denied".
I've tried searching, but I can't seem to find any other policy that might be enforcing such a silly restriction. Should there ever be a network problem with these machines I would be screwed because of no floppy or CD access. I have not tried booting into safe mode to see if that works, these are also production databases so downtime must be minimal. What could be wrong? Any ideas on where to look?
