unable to access server files using UNC path
Hello everyone,
I need to copy a bunch of files accross two domains. A full trust exists between the domains and we have been using this Trust successfully.
The program I'm using to copy this files requires that I use the UNC path as oppossed to the mapped drive option.
Here is my issue: within the source domain, I am able to use: "\\servername\c:$\files"; but when I attempt to do this from the target domain, I immediately get prompted for User name and Password, and it does not matter what admin credentials I enter (Admin credentials from either domain), it does not allow to get pass the logon screen.
Help,
Nelson Aguillon

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
BTW does this work for non-administrative shares, i.e. ones you have created yourself -- try creating one that has Everyone share and NTFS permissions for instance.
