Vista Client Access Denied to shared drives
I have widows Server 2003 as domain controllers, Currently have XP pro x86 clients, one EMC Celerra NAS array. Currently everything appears to be working fine. the issue is that I am in need of changing these XP hosts to Vista Pro x86. With Vista I am able to connect to the windows shares that are from the servers and or other hosts just fine. I am not able to access the EMC celerra NAS array shares with the Vista systems only. When logging via "map network drive " to the net bios name I recieve a popup error that says,"\\NASName 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 access permissions. The account is not authorized to log in from this station."When I try the logon with the " Map network drve" to the \\IP address\sharename I get"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occured: The account in not authorized to log in from this station."When I try the Command promt with,net use \\ip\sharename or \\NASNAME\SharenameI get system error 1240 has occured.Assuming I am being denied access from the celerra I check the logs there. they all say successful login attempt. The windows 2003 server AD logs say the same thing and even on the Vista machine it self, there is a successful logon attempt to the Celerra recorded. Yet, I get the error when trying to connect. Up until now I have been attemoting this with Domain admin account and User account.The Local admin account gives me something different.When logging in it gives me a prompt for user name and password, after I enter Local admin account or any other known working accounts I get \\NASNAME\AccountName and says I may have mispelled something, which is telling me one of a few things, (Correct me if I am Wrong)the local admin has the authority on the local machine to access this, but not authority to connect to the Celerra.( this only worked after turning on SSDP, TCPIP/NetBios helper. Computer browser and the server service.)The Domain account and users do not have Local permission to access this even though the domain admin account is in the administrators group on the local machine.Please help if you can!other bits of information inwhich may or may not help are,The Man is having me use a non stock version of a vista image, A stock Vista pro image does connect to this.

Yes I am still having this Issue. Personally I think it is a 3rd party software issue. I do have antivirus disabled just for testing this. Ensured firewalls are disabled as well. When I ask The Man he responds with "when you figure it out, let us know." I have also went into the secedit and allowed connections to non SMB2, when knowing that the Celerra will only allow the SMB and not the SMB2.
