We have an Iomega 250Gbyte network hard drive that was used to back up files
from a Windows 2000 server that has failed. This drive was available to all
users on our network. We have installed a new server running Windows 2003
Standard Edition 32 bit with no access controls specifically invoked. The
Iomega drive can be found and mapped in Windows Explorer but none of the
folders or files on it can be seen or accessed. Any attempt to create a new
folder, for instance, gives 'Access is Denied'. We have added now a second
(new) Iomega 250 Gbyte drive that gives the same result. These drives are
also now no longer accessible by other users on the network, whichever
version of Windows they are using. We have XP professional, 2000 and 98SE
users. The drives themselves do not have any way of setting access
permissions so there must be something in Windows 2003 server that is causing
this. What is it and how do we overcome it?
