Guest whizr Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 I've got a bit of a conundrum. I setup a small business 03 server and it runs great.. i went to setup some profile based network drive mapping and it keeps erroring on the server side saying "you don't have creation privileges" "you have to create the folder manually" so i did. But the workstation doesn't see it. On further examination I (as the administrator) can't even jump to it through the UNC path. I then ran an experiment, share a folder on both C and one on D with the same security on the share and the folder. I can access the share off the C drive but not the D drive. I have been dealing with windows for years and access privileges are no stranger but this is weird. Thanks for any help -- whizr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ whizr's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=32217 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=828046 http://forums.techarena.in

If you didn't use all its myriad wizards there are many things that may've gone awry, no matter how much experience you've got with Windows.
Guest Jabez Gan [MVP] Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Re: server sb 03 refuses to share To add to what Lanwench has said, you need to configure most if not all of the settings through its wizard. Manually configuring the IP (for example - real world example by myself) will not work on SBS. -- Jabez Gan Microsoft MVP: Windows Server - File Storage "Lanwench [MVP - Exchange]" <lanwench@heybuddy.donotsendme.unsolicitedmailatyahoo.com> wrote in message news:eh1rp7eBIHA.5652@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > whizr <whizr.2xw3zd@DoNotSpam.com> wrote: >> I've got a bit of a conundrum.
