it sounds like a possible lockup on the explorer shell, i presume you still can get to the unc path and all but rdp or console does not give you any option to logon? if you could remotely mmc the server and try to see what services might have stopped? or see event viewer to see what has coursed an issue on the server that might be the starting point. else reboot the server and logon to look through the event logs for any clues it might have.

I already tried the above suggestions. RDP does not work. I used the management console to access the event viewer and services etc. All the usual services are up and the event viewer doesnt show any thing that would explain this.

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
