    cannot access shared folder after changing domain with old domain cred


    hi

    i have changed the domain of the computer (from say old.net to new.net).
    there is a folder shared on another machine on old.net domain. the user X was able to access it. aftter changing his domain from old.net to new.net he no longer can access that shared folder.
    User X has working credentials for both domains.

    on accessing it it asks for credentials. upon entering his correct user name in the format (old.net\X) he is not able to access it.

    i had exactly same setup with another user Y and he was able to access data .

    is there anything that i am missing ?

    also accessing that folder first time asked for credentials but now it doesnt asks .. why ? there is nothign in credentials manager.

    regards

    Hello,

    Have you removed/re-added the User's credentials (from the PC with shared folder) with the new domain name?
    Also, make sure that the shared folder has Everyone permission in the Security Tab.
