- TITLE :Access Denied Errors When Everyone Set to Full Control
- PRODUCT :Windows NT
- PROD/VER:3.10
- OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
- KEYWORDS:
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- The information in this article applies to:
-
- - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- There are three situations in which you will receive an "Access
- Denied" message across untrusted domains when accessing a resource
- that has permissions for Everyone.
-
- 1. When a user from an untrusted domain attempts to access the server
- and they have the same user name with a different password defined
- in that domain, they'll be prompted for a password or receive an
- "Access Denied" message depending on the operation.
-
- Workaround
- ----------
-
- For accessing file servers on the other domain, you can work around
- this problem by providing the correct DOMAIN/USERNAME in the Connect
- As dialog box in File Manager and then providing the correct password.
- Otherwise, if the user has the same user name on both domains, make
- sure that the passwords match, or set up a two-way trust relationship
- between the two domains.
-
- 2. The Guest account on the domain is disabled. This is the default for
- Windows NT Advanced Server. If a user from an untrusted domain is
- trying to access the server remotely, they will receive an "Access
- Denied" message because there is no valid user name that they can use
- to make the connection.
-
- Workaround
- ----------
-
- Enable the Guest Account on the Windows NT Advanced Server.
-
- 3. If your account or all of the groups you belong to do not have the
- right to "access this computer from network," you will receive this
- error message.
-
- Workaround
- ----------
-
- Use User Manager to add the "access this computer from network"
- right to your account.
