I have just added a user to the NT Server domain, user connects to the network fine, but, when the user goes to access the NT Server an error pops up that says:
"you don't have permission to use this resource"

Any suggestions?

Thanks for yourtime,
Dave Corbell

When you setup the user's account, did you assign him to a group other than "Everyone"?
What was the user trying to access (shared folder, printer, etc.)?
What permissions exist on the particular resource where access was denied?
If this user is assigned to only the "Everyone" group, but the "Everyone" group does not have permissions for a given resource . . .
Merely creating an account does note guarentee access to everything on the server, permissions must also be assigned at the resourcelevel.
Hope this helps.

I put the user in the "Domain user" group as the other office personnel are in. Not sure why this happened, but I took the user out of the Domain and re-added them to the Doamin again and NT accepted the user, go figure. Love those Microsoft Applications.
Thank you for your time with this matter!
