Have workstation with XP SP2 installed. When a non-admin users power's up
the machine from cold-start and attempts to login, the file share is not
accessible - getting \\FileServ\Users\<username>\<folder> is not accessible.
You may not have permission to use this network resource. Access is denied.
Network path was not found.

Basically, person has permission on the \\FileServ\ server.

What's interesting is the after the network login - you THAN able to access
the fileshare area \\FIleServ\Users\<username> without incident.

It's just during the complete recycle of power to machine - the server is
not accessible.

ANY suggestions - I've researched many newsgroups and not finding any
suitable solution.
 
Also - for clarity

From the \\FileServ\Users\<username>\PCDesktop - there is a subfolder that
is used to populate the desktop icons for user. It's way we handle this for
agency and has no issue for over 200 users.

For this workstation, during the COLD-START cycle of power / this path is
not accessible during the startup scripts / not sure why. But AFTER the
login, if I Right Click and REFRESH my desktop - it's available than.

Again, getting the error message in earlier post [when recycle power].
ALSO, this only occurs for non-admin users. Is there a permission issue on
the LAPTOP that I have to change - that's the only other issue I can think of
@ this moment. I've attempted to search for solution via postings from other
newsgroups - but I'm not finding a solution.

Help - ASAP please!
