Hi. Can anyone tell me why I would be getting the error that I cannot access the files on a read only directory, when nothing is marked as read only. The files that I am referring to are on a shared directory on a server. The folders and subfolders are not marked read only, just the files that are inside the subfolders when I go to click on them. Everyone that has tried to access the files cannot except one person and we are all set up the same. I am having this problem on both XP and NT. Please advise.

The permissions for local users and the permissions for network users are different. Check that both allow for access.
If i am helpful, please give me reputation points.
