1.machine freezes when saving files on network share
i have just migrated a 30 user network onto a 2003 Small Business Server. Everything works great until a file is opened on a network share and changes are made and a save is attempted. upon executing the save function the workstations just lock up and i get a debugging message
this occurs on both 2000 pro and 98 se workstations
this is not happening on all machines so i am totally at a loss.

4.Sharing printer on XP machine w/Vista machine
OK, I've got 3 PCs as follows:
PC1 - Runs XP Media Edition with two printers attached & shared
PC1 - Runs XP Home Edition - uses the printers on PC1 via sharing.
PC3 - Runs Vista Business Edition. Shares files & folders just fine,
but for the life of me I cannot get it to add either printer that's on PC1.
I've spent hours pouring over hundreds (thousands?) of posts here.
Initially I was having sharing files & folders too, but once I added
"everybody" to the permissions list on Vista, all my shared files
problems went away. This was cause for great jubilation and
celebration. :-) However the positive atmosphere was once again
stiffled when I went back and tried to access the printers on PC1 again.
Again I was totally foiled, and remain so.
The printers I'm using are (1) A Samsung ML-1210 laser printer, (2) A
Canon Pixima IP1600 inkjet; both connected via USB on PC1. I connected
the Samsung directly into PC3 to be sure I had a valid driver there & it
worked just fine when directly connected. But when I reconnected it
back to PC1 (which runs XP), I just couldn't access it. If I go to
Control Panel -> Printers with Vista, I can click Add Printer and
Network Printer and it successfully finds the two printers on PC1.
However as soon as I click on one of their icons and click NEXT, I get
the following two popups:
"Connecting to ML-1200 on GT4010", then a second later
" Windows cannot connect to the printer, access is denied".
I've turned off the firewalls on both PC1 & PC3, and tried all kinds of
changes on the Vista PC3 including:
- Setting up an administrator ID on the Vista PC to match that on the XP
machine
- Changing the network to PUBLIC, then back to PRIVATE,
- Turning off TCPiv6
- Installing XP fix KB922120
- Turning "password protected sharing" on and off.
- Network discovery ON and OFF.
- Of course all the above was with Vista's File Sharing, Printer
Sharing, and Public Folder Sharing, turned on.
- I tried downloading Network Magic, but two successive attempts ended
in errors.
COULD SOME WISE PERSON PLEASE HELP?! Many thanks in advance - this
is driving me crazy!
5.Can't share vista machine with xp machine
I just installed a new Vista machine onto a home network with two XP machines
running on them. The vista machine sees all the shared folders on the XP
machines, and my XP laptop sees the shared folders and printer on the vista
machine. But the XP desktop does not see the vista machine when accessing my
network places. However, when I select "view workgroup computers" the Vista
machine is displayed. And when I select properties for the vista in that
window, I get an error message that reads "You do not have the appropriate
access rights for the server." All the machines use PC-cillin, and have the
same firewall settings. But, I did once have Norton Antivirus on the
desktop, but I removed it using the Norton Removal Tool. Is there a more
speciific settting I have to make in the Vista machine or the XP machine to
allow the XP to access the Vista shared folders?
