Shares not sharing

I posed this question in the cluster group but they say
it's a W2K File share issues.

Have a SQL 2000 cluster with SP3 and W2K SP4.

All of our home directories on active Node 2 work fine.
When there is any type of failover some of our home dirs
are not accessible?

Checked and re-checked all the folder and file permissions
and they are accurate. Deleted the whole share and folder
then added all the permissions again but still no access,
even after a reboot multiple times from the client.

On the cluster side we have reset the quorum log and
checked for any errors on the drive where our quorum is.
Everything checked out fine.

Any suggestions would be great!
 
Are the same users and groups setup on all nodes? Are you using domain
groups or local? I would suggest using only domain groups. In other words,
add users to groups on the domain, then add those domain groups to the local
groups (like power users) on the cluster nodes. If you want to, you CAN add
individual users to local groups but make sure you are adding their domain
user accounts NOT local accounts and that you do it on all nodes. I prefer
not to do it that way because it can get messy real fast as users come and
go.
Rebooting the clients should have no affect on the permissions since changes
take affect immediately.
