access to "Properties/Sharing"

[Guest SisterMaryElephant]

Hi,

 

Since our recent domain controller migration from NT to Win2k3 R2 we cannot

get acess any longer to the Properties/Sharing of any files/folders even as

Domain Administrator, unless we open a session locally on the machine on

which we want to manage any sharing...

 

Ex : a shared folder on computer X can only be controlled using a

administrator connection open locally (either as domain administrator or

local machine administrator) but cannot be controlled from a session open on

any other machine connected to the network even if the folder apperas in the

explorer on this machine (right clic on this folder then Properties only

displays the "General" & "Security" options)

 

Thanks a lot in advance for any answer, it's a drag !

AFAIK, that's normal. You can use RDP to connect to your server console to

do your admin - unless you're talking about shares on workstations, but

that's really not good to use anyway (all data should be on your server &

shared from there). You shouldn't need to modify/work on your sharing all

that much after you've set up your server.
