folder sharing - in tears

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

hi

I have two computers. I can share the folders on my laptop and I can access
them on my desktop fine, but I need it to be the other way around.

The problem is if I share a folder on any of the 3 ntfs hard drives i have
jbod single spans and try and access the folder from my laptop (although I
can see it) when I try and enter the folder I get a 'not accessible, no
permission contact administrator ' type error.

To make things ever weirder if I share the cd drive or even an external ntfs
drive it shares perfectly and the laptop can see it.

I have checked and "everyone" has read access as I want.

Please help I have worked for hours on this and have completely run out of
ideas.

David

also I should add - when I try and access the folder on my laptop at the
bottom of the "contact your administrator" error it says not enough server
storage space to complete...

This condition is usually fixed by applying the latest service pack.
Sometimes
it is caused by NAV or IBM AV:

I increased ipsecsize to 18 and it worked perfectly - thanks for this.
