I have created a
Active Directory server
Fileserver and
A windows xp machine using virtual server
All machines are part of a domain and I have managed to set up users and group etc. Which can succesfully login into any machine.
I am playing around with file permissions on the fileserver and wish to add a permissions to a folder I have created and shared.
The only problem is when selecting a user to add to the security of a folder, I cannot change the location to determine where to browse users from. I wish to select users created in my active directory however I can only see the local groups and users to the fileserver.
WHat am i missin
Not sure if I have explained the problem well
any ideas ??????
Thanks

I have seen this when the workstation or server has the wrong DNS setttings. i.e. it has your ISP's settings and as a result cannot contact AD to querie the user listIsn't Bill such a Great Guy!!!!
