Hi,
I have a problem connecting to a network share from my Windows2003 TS.
New users can connect to the share from any Windows XP machine on our network
by once we put them on TS they cannot connect - you do not have rights etc...
They can however browse the server and see the shares and can open the sysvol
folder of this server and can open shares on other servers on our network.
Licenses and evrything looks correct.

It seems to be a rights issue but they is setup in the same groups as
working users and the user can connect from a Windows XP client with no
problems?

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

I dont' understand, when they are logged on the server they cannot access
netowrk shares or?

Have you set rights for TS server to access that shares?
Are u using domain authentication or?

Frane,
The situation is that it seems to be only one server that the shares
are not working on however you can browse the server and see the shares and
also go into the first level of the sysvol share with the users.

Yes the users login to the domain and are using domain authentication

It is something with user rights on that server, nothing to do with
terminal services.
Check your server shares and make sure that share can browse everybody (or
selected users from terminal server) and has rights that will allow users
to browse shares.

I have the same problem and posted a separate message yesterday, but nobody
has replied so far.
The main issue is that in Windows 2003 server RDP connection, there is no
need to worry about any share or security rights for making the share of,
say, a redirected printer. As long as the user connecting belongs to the
Administrators group, managing and sharing printer won't be a problem.
However, with the same adminitrative right, the redirected printer won't
allow any change with most sharing and security right buttons greyed out. It
is only when one manually takes over ownership of the printer that those
buttons become "un-greyed". The inconvenience is that after the user logs
off, the manually set privilege is gone, and next time when this user
connects in, the same manual procedure to take over ownership is required.
This does not happen with Windows 2003 server.
Therefore, the question is that whether that priviledge has been removed
from Windows 2008, or is there a policy or other setting that might be
required to bring the convenience back.
Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

I already replied to your previous mail. There is no workaround for this in
2008.
