No access to shares and printer

[elrub2]

Windows NT workstation sp6. The shares and printer(hp laserjet 6p) were accessible, now they are not. I am able to access resources on the network from this workstation, but when I try to access the resources on this workstation, from the netwrok, I get this message "Logon failure: Access denied, unable to connect".
I have checked the permissions settings for this workstation, confirmed that the server services are on, checked the ip address, setup a new share with the everyone group, with full control,....
Any suggestions?

Are you on a domain or a workgroup?
Is the guest account enabled? MCSE NT4/W2K

 

[elrub2]

Domain with guest account disable, however, printer permission list the following:
Administrator FULL CONTROL
Creator Owner Manage
Everyone Print
Server Operator Full
Domain/Administrator Full
Authenticated users Print
and then some individual users with various permissions.

I tried to use the NET USE command to connect to this workstation "net use \\computername", the responce was "\\computername is not accessible
Logon Failure: The user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer."

I just don't get it.

Are the Server, Workstation, Netlogon (etc..) services started on that printer box? MCSE NT4/W2K

 

[elrub2]

Here is the list of services that are started on this workstation:
Computer Browser, eventlog, netlogon, RPC service, Server, Simple tcp/ip, spooler, task scheduler, tcp/ip netbios, workstation.

I have unshared, reshared all the shares, wondering what else I can do.

Is the workstation still on the domain? MCSE NT4/W2K

I ran into this same problem recently. If anyone has any ideas please pass them on to me I'd appreciate it.

Sounds like a policy type thing (do not allow access to this machine from the network). In 2k you can set this from gpedit.msc - I'm not on NT machine currently, and can't remember what you can set with policy editor - though User manager has ability to add/remove functionality to groups (including access from network), so its possible somebody has removed it from all groups on that machine).

I had a similar problem on my WinNT WS 4.0 machine.

The solution was this (as hinted by wolluf):
- open User Manager
- open Policies|User Rights
- select the "Access this computer from network" right
- add the users/groups who should have access
