Cannot access share on Windows XP PC since joining all PC's to a 2011SBS Domain
Hi All,
I have just installed a 2011 SBS server into a company that previously had a small workgroup network. 1 PC on the network shared a folder containing accounts information with another PC via a mapped drive.
I've installed an SBS server and joined all PC's to the domain and everything is working fine but I cannot get PC1 (Vista Business) to access the share on PC2 (XP pro) When I try to browse to the share I get the message :
"\\PC2 in not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed."
I can view all shares on the server and use Outlook with no issues and I can ping PC names with no issues.
I don't have the option of moving the shared data onto the server unfortunately) I've removed and reset the share up, granted "Everyone" full access, there is no firewall software on either PC other than Windows Firewall.
Can anyone please help me as I can't get their accounts system working without this share working.
Many thanks
Adam

There might be a GPO blocking shares (or enabling the Firewall) on the XP client. Check which GPOs are running on the client using either RSoP or gpresult.
Is it just PC1 that cannot access it or multiple PC's.
If just one the message "The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed." Would imply you need to disjoin the domain and rejoin.
If multiple PC it may be that when you set up the share and permissions you used local permissions and not domain permissions, as they did not exists. You may need to update share and/or security permissions.

have you tried logging into the PC as the domain administrator - If you do and the share still cannot be accessed - it will give us a better direction in finding the problem
Make sure that you have turned off simple sharing on the XP-PRo machines
Any folder - tools - folder options - view - Last item - Restart.
How was the PC joined to the domain - Did you use the wizard? or manually join it

Hi All,
Found out that no other PC regardless of whether it's XP or Win 7 or Vista can connect and get the same error. I've run GPResult and doesn't look like any GPO's are in play. I can't see the share logged on as domain administrator either.
I've turned off simple file sharing, removed the share and added it again, and added "domain users" and even "everyone" to the security group with full control.
I joined the domain always using the wizard.
I've noticed that shared on other non-XP PC on the domain ARE accessible so it seems to be an issue with the XP PC that the share is on.
Any more ideas?
Thanks
Adam

Just an additional point, when I go into the local Admin group on the XP machine and add users from the domain to the local admin group it adds them but shows the SID next to their name, is that normal?
