Issue Opening Files via TS

I have been looking for a cure to this issue for the past 2 days, hopefully
someone here can help.

We have a TS set up, all we have on the Server is TS.

If I log on as the Administrator for the Domain I can open all files on a
different server, by going Start --> Run --> \\servername then navigating to
the file.

If I log into the TS as a User (With Administrator rights the same as the
above login) I go to the same file but get the following error, but only on
access (.mdb) files:

'Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have
the appropriate permissions to access the item'

I have tried the following:
The permissions on the File that I am trying to open
Adding the server to Intranet Sites via IE Tools, Options and Security Tabs.
Adding the IP Address and server name to the hosts File
(C:/WINDOWS/System32/Drivers/etc/).
Adding, 1 by 1, the same Memberships to myself as the Administrator Account
has.
Changing my profile from one OU to another in Active Directory.

None of the above have worked, this is probably something so simple that
when I find out what it is I am realy going to kick myself.

Thanks in advance
 
Re: Issue Opening Files via TS

What is the Windows version of Terminal Services are you running?
The user account you used 'TS as a User ', is it a domain user or a local
user to the terminal server?
Do you get the error for all files and all \\remoteservers ?
If you logon to the physical console with 'TS as a user' account, do you
still get the same error?
