Hey,

We have a forest in our company, and I administer one of the domains in
it.
Recently we got to a storage room shortage, so I bought a Dell NAS
server with StorageServer 2003. Our domain controller is 2000 server.
I created a Stand-Alone DFS on the 2000 server linked to the NAS (at
first I used Domain based, but because we have some folders with the
same name on different domains in the forest, all the other domains
users got to our folder when they tried to go to thier local ones).
Users who logon to the domain have a seamless transition, they just
double click the folder on the file server and they get to the NAS
without even knowing.
The problem is with those users who don't logon (for different reasons)
when they double click the folder that is linked to the NAS they get a
premission error. It seems that the file server isn't passing the
credentials to the NAS when it's a non-domain user.
Is there a way to solve this? (even prompting for logon instead of just
a premission error would satisfy me, those users who don't logon have
accounts on the domain, they just didnt' connect their computers to it)




Thanks!
Tomer.
