When I click on open My Network Places and attempt to establish a new Network Place to an ftp site I get the error: The Network place could not be added because the following error has occured: The parameter is incorrect. You can only click 'OK'. I am logging into an NT domain(abc) as a standard user. I then logged in to same domain using administrator account which has full access. I get the same error.
I then logged on to local machine instead of domain and had no problem creating network place. I then logged on to another mixed mode domain in our corporate network and had no problem making network place connection.
I do not feel the error is a firewall issue as I have no problems on other domains but still have to go through same firewall.
I have a feeling it is something in the NT policy settings but am not sure. I did not see anything in the shell restrictions that stood out.
Also I will mention that this error is not with just a specific ftp site but any ftp site that I attempt to create a network place for.
Anyone have any ideas? I am stumped.
