Excuse me for my ignorance here, but here it goes...

I have recently inherited a network which was completely fragmented,
with no domain controller, four servers, and about 50 workstations. So
far I've managed to set up a domain controller, and have linked two of
the three remaining servers to it. The domain controller, along with
the two properly functioning servers are runnign windows server 2003;
the remaining server, which is used simply for public folders, is
running windows 2000. Today I brought the older server on-line, and
although I can see it from the domain controller active directory, it's
claiming that I do not have sufficient rights to access Can anybody
point me in the right direction so that these folders can be accessed
from both the the domain controller, as well as domain users?
 
Did you join it to the domain?

When you look at the active directory, you can see the name of the
server located there, but when you try to map network drive, I get an
error message saying that I do not have permission to access, and to
check with administrator to see if I have rights...Just not sure how to
assign user rights in 2000...I'm very inexperienced in any of this

Yes, the public storage server is part of the domain.

Clean install of the OS? Share permissions correct?

Any help and setting up the share permissions? Would this be done at
the domain controller lever or the public storage server?

Thanks for responding.
