Have about eight computers on a Win98 peer to peer network, with one of the computers acting a file server. When the boss, and only her computer, tries to save to the file server, she gets the following..."word cannot complete this save due to a file permission error". I looked on MS website and the only info to this problem applied to W2K. Could the boss have a bad vredir.vxd file? Any one with any ideas????

try sharing one directory and give permission to everyone then deduct one by one as the rights go good.

In a peer to peer network, You need to add the individuals in the netowrk to the server(If nt4 server). Add them as local users with specific permissions if needed. Make sure you use the same username and password as the problem user uses on their computer. I had the same issue before.
If file server is Win98, Make sure she is not using a read-only password on the share. If password is the same for both, Change one from the other. If she is modifying a file from the File server, make sure the file is not write protected or read only. Try these steps.
