Hello, Sorry if it is not the right place to open this topic and ask this question. If not, someone please provide the right location to do it. In order to do my work, I have to remotely connect my local PC (Windows XP Professional SP2) to a Windows Server 2003. I was able to "see" the local drives on MyComputer / WindowsExplorer on the Server and transfer files in between. One week ago I noticed this was no longer possible. The only thing showing on the server is an icon with "System Folder" name. As my worstation was behaving very strange I started investigating and found a failed attempt to automatically install SP3 !?! As I thought this was the reason for my problems, I manually installed SP3. The result was disapointing: I still cannot see my local drives from the Server over a RDC session. Please note that other PCs in the same networing environment have no such problems. Is there a way to troubleshoot such an issue? Any suggestions/recommendations are mostly welcome. Thank you. 2 people need an answerI do too

How to gain access to local files You can gain access to your disk drives on the local computer during a Remote Desktop session. You can redirect the local disk drives, including the hard disk drives, CD-ROM disk drives, floppy disk drives, and mapped network disk drives so that you can transfer files between the local host and the remote computer in the same way that you copy files from a network share. You can use Microsoft Windows Explorer to view the disk drives and files for each redirected disk drive. Alternatively, you can view the files for each redirected disk drive in My Computer. The drives are displayed as "drive_letter on <var>terminal_server_client_name</var>" in both Windows Explorer and My Computer.To view the disk drives and files for the redirected disk drive: Click Start, point to All Programs (or Programs), point to Accessories, point to Communications, and then click Remote Desktop Connection. Click Options, and then click the Local Resources tab. Click Disk Drives, and then click Connect. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313292-B- http://www.officeforlawyers.com Author: The Lawyer's Guide to Microsoft Outlook
