I continue to get "Access is Denied" when trying to map users to the secondary drive (d:) on my server, unless the user is a member of the Administrators group. The users can map to the primary drive (c:) on the server without a problem. I've given the users full control on all folders, but still get "Access is Denied" message. Any idea what could be causing this?

 
Have you given them access to the share? Also, check for any inherited permissions that might be overriding your explicit permissions.

Hope this helps.

Please help us help you. Read Tek-Tips posting polices before posting.

How are your users mapping to your C: and D: drives? are they actually mapping to the root \\servername\C$, D$ etc or is to a share name
