sounds like it could be a permissions issue... check the permissions of the file/folders that the users are trying to access and make sure they are accessible by everyone within the company (who needs access)... from the sounds of it, you are not using FTP, but a file share on a network drive...

Our company has set up a FTP site in order to share info - pdf's, Docs, etc. &nbsp;We have set up the directory as a 'My Network Place'.<br />
<br />
Some of the users can open files directly i.e. double clicking and choosing to open document, while other users have to copy the files to their local computer first. &nbsp;We prefer to miss this step out and open the files directly. &nbsp;Anybody have any idea what the problem could be?

Win2000 FTP problems

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
