User cannot access folder on windows 2000 server

[maury]

User of Windows 7 station can only get access to folder on windows 2000 server if the security & share are set to Administrator level. Cannot get access with either user name or computer name.

Check the rights for the user on the Server share and file. Do you know the difference between local and network accounts? What account is being used to access the server?

The server share & security are both set to allow the user in on that folder. I am not sure that I follow you on the issue of the local & network accounts, can you elaborate?

If you have a Server running, you need to learn about the accounts, depending on which type of account they are using will depend on how you need to setup rights and how they need to enter their user name. http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles-tutorials/netgeneral/Local-vs-Domain-User-Accounts.html

Is this the only system with the issue?
