Guest Charlie Brown Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 I have a win2k3 box that I have shared the d:\ If I type \\servername\d to open the shared folder, I get access denied. I am logged onto the server as an admin, permissions are correct for both the share and the folder. Also trying to get to the share from the server itself. Its almost as if sharing for the server itself is turned off / disabled.
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Re: Win 2003 Folder Sharing Hello Charlie, The drive letter sharing is always done as d$. By default you can not share it for users it is a so called admin share. Create a folder under d:\myshare and share myshare with the name you like.

Guest Pegasus \(MVP\) Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Re: Win 2003 Folder Sharing Your reply is at variance with the following sequence of commands: C:\>net share d=d:\ d was shared successfully. C:\>dir \\pegasus\d Volume in drive \\pegasus\d is DATA Volume Serial Number is C300-9717 Directory of \\pegasus\d etc. \\pegasus\d was even accessible by an ordinary user, not an administrator.
