Hello,
This one is driving me completely insane.
1 domain\site
I have a 2008 x64 SP1 server running as a Hyper-V host - the host also hosts
all the user\corp data shares
the 2 DCs are 2008 x64, no 2003 DCs
Fresh install of XP SP3 on a physical machine (not a VM), fully updated -
(this behavior also is replicated on a XP SP3 VM)
heres the situation:
from my vista sp1 client I can browse the root \\server & all shares
\\server\shares
whether logged in as a user, or a domain admin from the xp box i cannot do
either above, even using \\ip-address\ - I get this error:
"the network name is no longer available"
i went as far to install wins in my environment, add the wins entry to all
servers tcp\ip properties, added to DHCP scope,
on all the 2008 servers: tcp\ip properties\
unticked ipv6, link-layer topology discovery mapper i/o driver, link-layer
topology discovery responder
file and printer sharing-enabled
client for microsoft networks-enabled (in the properties\name service
provider, none ("blank") was selected - set to "windows locator" applied, go
back..it reverts to none again (none meaning "blank")
the shares were created the old school way, new folder\share
permissions(everyone-full)ntfs permissions-set correctly, no permissions
altered on the root drive
even stranger....from the xp boxes I can browse the DC (2008) shares
....sysvol...
i can ping the server hosting the shares by name,
what does it take to accomplish this? Is it even possible?
