I am running 2000 Server on my network. I have 2 client computers that are running XP Pro and a dual boot with 2000 Pro & XP Pro. When I try to connect to the network server, I get this message. "XXXXXserver is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of the server to find out if you have access permissions. The network location cannot be reached for information about network troubleshooting, see Windows help." AND "You do not have access to the folder "xxxserver" See you administrator for access to this folder." I am logging on as the administrator and I have checked the permissions. BUT when I repair the connection, I can navigate to the server and open the shared drives. However, when I log off I lose the connection and have to repeat the repair. Can you help?
Thanks a bunch,
Cyndy

Does this happen with just one system or both?

You have a name resolution problem.

All name resolution services (NetBIOS, DNS, WINS) must function perfectly or 2k server/xp clients can give alot of problems.
