I'm trying to resolve an issue with Win98 users loosing access to network
shares. We are in the process of moving from a Novell network to a Microsoft
network. nearly all of our resources are still on the Novell network. We
access files via gateways. We have multiple gateways on several 2K Domain
Controllers as well as standalone servers. The problem is NOT with just one
gateway.
Typically, users will synchronize files from a gateway share, then connect
to
a database via TCP/IP. After a period of time, users get an "Access Denied"
error message when accessing any other gateway share. after a reboot, users
log back onto the network and have access to all their shares once again for
a period of time.
While this problem is frequently occurring for the same users, we can not
reproduce it on a regular basis.
There is one share, which is a 2K share, which appears not to be effected
and lost.
All 98 clients have the dsclient for 2K installed.
All 98 clients as well as 2K clients use kixStart to map shares some of
which are based on group membership.
No 2K clients experience this problem.
Thank You to any and all who might have suggestions, information, and
insight into this problem.
