... is not accessible

Message: "....is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Network path was not found."

Resolutions:
1) make sure no any firewall blocks the LAN traffic.
2) make sure you have created the same workgroup, and the same username on w2k/xp for logging on a remote computer.
3) check user's rights.

4) you may want to enable guest account on w2k/xp.
5) if you are using simple file sharing, you may try to disable it and re-share the drive manually.
6) if it is mixed OS (win98, NT, ME and W2K/XP) network, enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
7) make sure the Computer Browser service is started if all computers are w2k/xp.
8) stop Computer Browser service on win9x, ME and NT if this is a mixed OS network.
9) cache credential by using net use \\computername\share /user:username command (it is better to have the username logon shared computer).
10) if you have tried enabling netbios over tcp/ip but doesn't work, you may try to load netbeui (loading netbeui may slow your network).
11) Make sure the server service is running.
12) If you can see the share in Network Neighborhood but not access it, this issue may be resolved by verifying that both the share permissions and the NTFS partition permissions are correctly configured for individual user or group access.

"... not accessible. Access Denied "

SYMPTOMS: When you attempt to connect to a network share, you may receive the following error message: `\\Servername\share` is not accessible. Access Denied. If you are accessing a share in another domain, this message may appear even though you have verified that the trust is configured correctly. Also, the share may be visible in Network Neighborhood.

RESOLUTION: This issue may be resolved by verifying that both the share permissions and the NTFS partition permissions are correctly configured for individual user or group access.

"Access is denied"

Symptoms: 1. When attempting to create a folder or copy a folder on a network drive, you may receive "Cannot create or replace xxxxx: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use".
2. When attempting to save a file on a network drive, you may receive "Cannot save or create xxxxx: Access is denied. Make sure the disk you want to save the file on is not full or write-protected or damaged".

Resolutions: go to the properties of the drive>Sharing, add the the user and give Change permission.
2. Make sure everyone has Change permission.

"Access Denied" Message When Opening from or Saving to a Network Folder

Symptom: When opening a network folder in Windows Explorer and then try to open a file from or save a file to that folder, the associated program may report a sharing violation, return an "access denied" message, or open the document as read-only. Typically, this problem occurs when you open a network folder and then double-click to open a Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel file. The document opens as read-only.

Resolution: To fix this problem, go to Windows Explorer, open the network folder that contains the file that you are trying to open or save. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options. Click Use Windows classic folders, and then click OK.

"An extended error has occurred" or "Access Denied"

Symptoms: When mapping a network drive using net use or using the `net view` command to view a different computer in the domain, you may receive: "An extended error has occurred" or "Access Denied" error messages.

Resolutions: 1) This issue may occur if the workstation doesn't synchronize the time with the server. After verifying that basic network connectivity exists, you can force time synchronization on the client computer manually. To do this, `run net time /domain /set command. 2)`Make sure you have granted enough licenses for clients accessing.

" computername is not accessible. No permission to access the resources"

If both win2000/XP and win9x can see the workgroup but only win2000/XP can access a win 2000/XP computer, and win9x gets the above error, check the group name. If they are the same name,

Check these:
1) are you sure the logon user has permission to the shared folder?
2) have you tried to logon using the same user name and password of the accessed win2k/XP computer?
3) the last and risky one, if you enable guest account in the accessed win2000/XP computer, can you access now?
