Cannot access a shared folder Error code: 0x80070035
Hello Experts, I have been working on this issue for like three days without a solution. I am truly desperate. My company just purchased a new Cloud Server that we will use as our development environment for a software project. In order for all the developers (which are all over the US) to access the development environment, we need to have a few shared folders on that new server. As soon as we got the server I did the following: 1) Installed Active Directory 2) Created a directory and made it shared - yes IT IS shared. 3) I created a few new users on the new active directory domain THE PROBLEM: I can't access the shared directory. Other developers have been successful in connecting to the shared folder (so the share is working) - all except me. when I open explorer and type \\IPADDRESS\SHAREDFOLDER instead I get this error (I am not even asked for credentials) Network Error Windows cannot access \\IPADDRESS\SHAREDFOLDER Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found. Things I have already tried: a) Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP - on all adapters - still did not help b) Disable IPv6 - I am not sure how to check if it truly disabled c) Turned off all firewalls - did not help d) Mapping a Drive using different credentials - I just get asked for credentials over and over e) Ping - yes I can see the server f) My credentials are correct because I can Remote Desktop with the credentials with no problem ( I am administrator) My Machine: Brand New Asus G Series Windows 7 Home Edition Any ideas?

I am having the same issue on a windows 7 professional machine that just started this morning, in addition to the above mentioned steps I have tested the NIC drivers, changed the "lanmanserver parameter" in registry from 1 to 3 still nothing. I can't ping the server either, all other machines on the network can access the share just fine. Please help

In my case it was the asa firewall, it was configured incorrectly. Can you access \\servername\sharename$ ?
