Windows Server 2003 R2 not accessible error.

by tanasqui . Updated 17 years, 1 month ago

I am attempting to set up a file server for a small business on a dell desktop pc w/ 1port 10/100 NIC card
1: Installed Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2
Standard Edition
2: Configured IP Address’
a:Class C network not subnetted
b:Static 192.168.1.99
c:11 other pc’s all xp dhcp assigned
d:network IP range 1.101-1.100/24
3: Installed Components:
a:File Server Management console
b:Storage Reporting, Quotas and File
Screening
c:DFS Management snap-in
d:DFS Replication
e:Storage Manager for SANs
f:Microsoft Services for NFS
g:Services for Macintosh
4: Shared folders with ‘File Server Management’
a:Permissions: Administrators have full
access; other users have read and write
access

I have access with my laptop(Gateway Laptop running Vista 64) to the shared files after entering an admin level user name and password. If I try to access the server from workstations on the same network the error I recieve is as follows: “\\Cprcd00 is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the bla bla bla. The network path was not found.” What simple task am I forgetting?

Additionally I cant view other computers on the network from the server. As far as I can tell network discovery is turned on.
