UNC connection access denied
I have a share on a Windows 2003 R2 server in a AD 2003 environment which can be accessed with an XP client using the unc path or via a mapped drive without any problems. We have recently moved to Windows 7 Pro. I can still map a drive to the
share and browse the files but if I try and UNC to the share I get access denied.
Error message: \\servername\sharename is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have the access permissions. A device attached to the
system is not funtioning .
I've gone through the permissions and they are fine. I've even added the everyone group with full control to be 100% sure I have full access. I am also a domain admin with admins having full control.
Has anyone come across this before and found a fix?
Thanks
Andy

Hi Andygt,
Did you ever get a solution to this problem? I am having exactly the same problem with a PC on my network.
Cheers
