Vista on workgroup cannot access domain shares (was ok on XP)
I have test machines on vmware that are on a workgroup. Accessing network
shares on the domain was working OK with XP, simply connected to \\server-ip\share-name and XP would ask for the user/pass and voila... Now installed Vista, and I get errors saying (translated from French)... The account is currently locked... not possible to connect... Something like that. I have put a vista on the domain and it's working as expected. Anyway I can make this work. For testing purposes, I cannot attach test Vista on domain ? Thanks,

Have you tried different logon ID?

Vista on workgroup cannot access domain shares (was ok on XP)
I don't event get to a login prompt asking for a user/pass (with a local user
on vista matching the one on the domain). The above message is right after doing a start-run \\server-ip\share-name For fun, I created another user (that does not match domain name) on vista and try the same thing... Different result... I now get a the user/pass pair, but all my attempts fails, cannot connect to my server share. The domain\user, user only give error message saying server not accessible. User@domain give a message like wrong password. Another thing I did, from vista, I tried to logon the domain server with a VPN connection with my domain account... That did not work either, it even locked my account on the domain!!! Thanks for the help... "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: Have you tried different logon ID?

I would check the DNS settings first. Any errors when using nslookup?

Vista on workgroup cannot access domain shares (was ok on XP)
Not related to DNS... I used IP on all testing... I got it to work with this
setup 1. VISTA on a workgroup 2. User in vista is different than the user on domain 3. Connect with \\server-ip\share 4. Enter domain account in that format domain-name\user If the VISTA user is the same as a domain account, I could not connect. All other format like user@domain does not work. VPN connection to domain does not work either, even with the user-not-on-domain in vista. Thanks, "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: I would check the DNS settings first.
