We are a Win2K shop running AD. I have a laptop running XP Sp1 which is a
member of the domain and PC Win2K Sp4 also a domain member. When I map to
the \\mis-1405\c$ (XP laptop) (from the Win2K Sp4 PC logging into the domain
with the administrator account), I can change to a folder (c:\temp) on the
mapped drive and
delete a file within that folder.
If I create a share for the temp folder on the XP laptop (\\mis-1405\temp),
give the
administrator account (for the domain) full access rights to the share, (the
same admin account I am logging into on the Win2K PC), create a map to the
folder from the Win2K PC, I can copy the file, copy files into the shared
folder, but receive an "access denied error" when I try and delete it.
If I delete files using a network map of \\mis-1405\c$ , I can delete a
file.
Not a permissions problem, but somehow XP doesn't see my account as full
admin when I use the share name rather
than the admin mapping.

Any thoughts or ideas?
Cheers

Run secpol.msc on the WinXP PC, then follow this path:
Local Policies / Security Options / Network Access: Sharing and Security
Model for Local Accounts
Set this policy to "Classic".
