Guest krisl100 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 I am currently trying to solve a rather unusual issue. I have a Windows Server 2003 Standard with SP2, all updates done. It is connected to a Dell NAS storage device. We have some shares here for various users. For some reason, this morning, the shared folders were no longer shared. There were no errors in the event log. What could have caused this? I re-shared the folders, but I am concerned this will happen again, any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Where are the shared folders? You mention a NAS, so I'm not sure where they reside.

Were *any* folders still shared? If you typed "net share" in a command prompt, was anything still there?
