We've just implemented Active Directory on our domain and we now have issues with browsing networked computer. The most common problem is when opening the entire network in My Network Places, it opens one time and then give a access denied message the next. There is no patten, however I believe it could be related to a timeout error. Any help would be appreciated.

Microsoft has posted knowledge base articles that seem to address the problem you are describing. They have hotfixes linked in the article.

The articles are Q278558 and Q278456.

You did not specify client types but if they are Windows 98 they are definitely vulnerable to these problems

Sorry, but it seems to be only effecting the XP and 2000 workstations. Servers and 9.x machines don't seem to have the problem.

What you need to do is call Microsoft and tell them the article numbers I gave you then you specify the OS you running. They have the patches for the different OS's.
