Network Boot Disk

I have created a network bootdisk for a Server 03 domain.
The disk allows me to map a share using net use
(administrativly or otherwise), however when I change to
that drive letter and issue a 'DIR' it returns with "Acces
Denied'. Is there any way to authenticate so that Domain
resources can be accessed?

That's due to W2k3's security configuration. Try changing this and it should
work. Unfortunately I don't monitor this newsgroup that often, so if it
doesn;t work for you, there's something else blocking it.

Go into your Def DC Policy, under Local Policies, Security Options, the
setting is called:
Microsoft Network Server: Digitally Sign Communication (always): Enabled.

Double click on it, then check off "Disabled".

This is a known issue with downlevel clients.
