Access mapped network drives on local box from local box

Dear TimeTraveller,

you should probably take some time to travel through the Win2003
documentation.

In W2K3, MS changed the standard permissions for file shares form
"Everyone:FULL" to "Everyone:READ".
So please check your permission for the file share. That should do the job.

Hope this helps
Andre
