SP2 No acess to network places

[Linda]

I installed SP2 for win2003 . I took a long time before the installation
finished.
Afterward I can not acsess files using network adresses like : "
\\server\sharename"
I i instead use the normal path as F:\\sharename I succeed. It not a
question of acsessright?, but win.explorer or other programs do not FIND the
address/file.
Does anybody know what has happened?
I am working on the actual (domain) server as administrator.


Thanks for help
Linda

RE: SP2 No acess to network places

Hi Linda,

Have you checked the Windows Server Firewall since the install? I agree
this doesn't seem to be an access issue but rather a networking one as using
a UNC \\server\share requires using the TCP stack and going out and back in
the NIC - even if you are on the server you are trying to access.

Kind Regards,

Mat.
