Suddenly my computer (Computer A) cannot map a network drive to Computer B. Computer A is XP Pro and Computer B is Windows 2000 Server, and they are members of a workgroup, not a domain. This occurs whether I try to connect to Computer B as myself or as the administrator. I tested three other computers and had no problem mapping a drive to Computer B. In addition, I can successfully map a drive from Computer A to Computer C, so it seems to be a problem specifically with the relationship between Computer A and Computer B. If I try this in Windows Explorer, the password is highlighted as if it is incorrect. I thought I might have a keyboard problem, so I typed both my password and the administrator password into Notepad to make sure that what I thought I was typing was actually being entered, then copied and pasted those passwords into the password box. When I issue the NET USE command, I receive error 1326: unknown user name or password.
To resolve the problem, here’s what I’ve tried so far:
1. Restarted Computer B.
2. Did a system restore on Computer A to one month ago.
3. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Client for Microsoft Networks on Computer A.
4. Disabled the Trend Micro firewall on Computer A.
What else might I try?
