Mixed case passwords from XP & Win7 are a problem when accessing QIBM

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
To ensure we install the latest Client Access, we began installing it on users PCs by going to Start &gt;&nbsp;Run &gt;&nbsp;\\192.168.206.246\QIBM. &nbsp;Unfortunately, when another IT tech attempts to install Client Access while he is logged on to the PC, he is denied access. &nbsp;When he's on a Windows 7 machine, he receives a Network Error message saying &quot;You do not have permission to access \\iSeries\QIBM. Contact your network admin to request access.&quot; &nbsp;On an XP machine, he's prompted and enters his credentials but prompt returns immediately. &nbsp;We explicitly granted him full authority to access QIBM, but still no success. &nbsp;His iSeries user class is QSYSOPR. &nbsp;His password contains only letters and numbers, with the first letter being upper case. &nbsp;He is the only user being denied access. &nbsp;Share permissions on QIBM are &quot;Public: Read &amp;&nbsp;Execute&quot;. &nbsp;Our system security level is 40. <br />
<br />
Any ideas?<br />
