I have been trying for hours to accomplish what I thought would be an easy task, but am utterly baffled by Windows file sharing permissions. Please help me.
PC1 - Server - contains a shared folder called "backups"
PC2 - desktop
- Created a user on server
- Gave that user "Full Control" under "Share Permissions" tab
- Navigated to \\server from my desktop and put in the user/pass
- I can see the folder. When I click on it, Windows tells me "Access is Denied."
I've tried:
- Restarting
- Logging in/out
- Changing HomeeGroup sharing from "Allow Windows to Use user accounts"
