BUT - the win2000 client does not receive a login prompt. instead, the shared folder shows up and when i click on it, it says it wasn't accessible. when i add "Everyone" to the folder permissions, the folder is accessible from the w2k client (without login prompt) - but that is not what i need. i need to restrict access to specific users. when i check the "Effective Permissions" they show up correctly for the user i created. i searched google and this forum but no results yet. anyone any ideas??
