re: "you might not have permission to use this network resource" In Win 2003 to win Xp sharing Saturday, March 21, 2009 at 8:23 pm Windows Server 2003 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by appleoddity (2343 messages posted) Well, there are a whole lot of different variables that can effect this and you haven't provided much information. Is the 2003 box a domain controller? Is the XP client logged in with a domain account, or a local account? There are three things that have to work together here: 1) The user account you login to the XP client with has to have a username and password that is identical to an account on the server 2003 box, or there has to be a domain controller and a windows domain account used. 2) You have to make sure the NTFS permissions of the share allow that specific user the access they need. 3) You have to make sure the share permissions of the share allow that specific user the access they need.
