We seem to be having a problem mapping to our server. When we try to map in network neighborhood, we get dialog box:<br><br>Connect as:<br>Password:<br><br>I ensured that the logon id for workstation is the same as the one on the server as specified in Domain user manager. None of the logon's work except for &quot;administrator&quot;<br><br>Need help...<br><br>Windows NT Server 4.0<br>Windows NT WS 4.0
 
Check the sharing properties for the shared directory on a server, specifically the Permissions (right-click on the directory, select Sharing, then Permissions) - which user IDs have shared access and what's the access level.<br><br>Regards!
 
when you log into the workstations, are you logging into the Servers' Domain?&nbsp;&nbsp;or the local computer?&nbsp;&nbsp;If you are logging into the local machine with the same user name as the domain, you will need to supply the domain credentials to access the domain's resources.<br>Hope this helps! <p> <br><a href=mailto: anongod@hotmail.com> anongod@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>"Drawing on my fine command of language, I said nothing.
 
Is the workstation actually logging on to the domain? Is this server part of that domain?<br><br>What permissions are set for this share?<br><br>It sounds as though the server is part of another non-trusting domain. If it is part of the same domain then I would guess the problem lies in the permissions for accessing this share.<br><br>Please provide a little more detail on the network layout. <p>Doug<br><a href=mailto:dxd_2000@yahoo.com>dxd_2000@yahoo.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
 
I think your drive on the server is shared as C$ and not C -create another share and set the permissions.<br><br>LabNinja
