Hey all! I have a problem with Winserver2003 SP1. I created a driver mapping disk from Ghost 8.2 boot wizard and it’s using MS-DOS boot program. When I logon to server I can see my network driver’s ID and a shared directory \\pc\data. but I can not launch any program from this directory. I get the “Access denied” DOS message.
I have opened the directory permission to “everyone”/ “full control”. Is it possible that Winserver2003 doesn’t support DOS client? I don’t know what else might be the problem. Help, please!
First of all, Win2003 server does support DOS client you just need to set something with NTLM. But I think there are some other issues with your configuration. I think that you can’t image a drive that you are running ghost or booting from. When I ghost my server I save the image to another disk. Also, the default setup for AD is migration mode and it supports the ‘down wind’ clients. If you convert AD to native mode it won't support any client older than Windows XP.
