Hi NG, I am having a small problem trying to write to an external hard disk drive (eHDD) on a Vista Ultimate machine. My XP machine (Snowdancer) has no problem reading and writing files to the internal HDD of a Vista machine (Osiris). If I copy test.txt from Snowdancer to \\Osiris\C on Osiris\tmp all goes well. I can read the C: drive on Osiris and the eHDD I: drive with no problem. But if I try to write a file to Osiris I: drive I get the "Access is denied" error. I have tried to set the permissions the same on the C: as on the I:, but still no luck. I am using the standard Firewall on both machines. Osiris has OneCare running and Snowdancer has Norton 360. My user name on Osiris is Bob, but on Snowdancer it is Robert Schuldenfrei. Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong? BTW, I tried to follow PChuck's suggestions and download Browstat.exe, but I could not find a place to download same. Both Dynawell and Stanford did not let me do it. TIA, Bob |

You may want to use icacls command to compare the permissions in both shared folders.
