I have locked down my win2k3 box and now cannot access shares either accross the network or locally as administrator. I have changed the name of my Administrator account but this should not have such an effect. I am trying to map locally using \\127.0.0.1\Sharename. I get a message saying I do not havve pemission, but I have explicitly set permissions on this share. I have even tried setting permissions on the root of the drive. The only two settings in the Local Security Settings I can think of which may have such an effect are &quot;Access this computer form the network&quot; and &quot;Deny access to this computer from the network&quot; but these are set correctly. I have also setup a new user and assigned share permissions. This user also cannot access shares locally or remotely. <br />
<br />
Any suggestions appreciated.

Can't access local shares in 2003

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
