Win2003 Server File Sharing and Vista

December 31, 2007

I have a Windows 2003 R2 x64 (all current SPs and updates installed) and 3

Windows Vista machines (also al X64 versions). When trying to copy a

(large - maybe 50MB +) file from the Windows 2003 Server to the Vista

Machines (the Server Shared folder is mapped to a drive in Vista) - I will

get an error like "There is a problem access I:\bigfile.txt - make sure you

are connected to the Network and try again"

Once in a while I will see "Error 0x8007003A"

I can copy those files just fine from Windows 2003 to another Windows 2003

machine or Windows XP machines...

The Windows Server 2003 install is a fresh install on a new hardware; the

Vista machines were able to copy large files from the previous Windows 2003

Server I had.
