Guest Broonie Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I have a file (a Crystal report) in a share that I want to access from an app installed on computers that are on a different domain from the server on which the share exists. There is no trust set up between the two domains. Previously this file was held on a Windows 2000 server and I had no problems accessing it. Now the file is located on a Windows 2003 server and I can no longer access it. The share permissions are the same on the new server as they were on the old one and I realise that the Everyone token is no longer handed out to anonymous logons anymore by default in 2003 so I enabled the default domain controller policy setting to allow everyone permissions to apply to anonymous users. I've also added the anonymous and everyone security groups to the the pre-windows 2000 compatible security group but I still can't access the file. Is there a limitation in 2003 that also says the anonymous user access request must come from the same domain as the domain on which the resource being requested exists? If so can someone confirm that this never used to be the case on 2000 and also help me find a way to access this file?
