Is the client joined to the domain? And does the client have the AD server as its primary DNS(Microsoft AD works heavily off DNS).

Posted

Right so I'm running two VMs ATM, one is a Win2008 R2 enterprise server and the other a Win7 client. I am attempting to share a folder using AD and for some gonefounded reason it isn't working. I went into AD Users and Computers and made a new OU in which I placed the shared folder. I know the pathing is correct since I can explore said folder from this screen. From the client, however, I can only access the folder directly through the network browser, it will NOT find it in an AD search. Everything else between these two VMs appears to be functioning except for this.

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Well bloody hell it was the DNS thing I think, that seems to have resolved it. Thanks mate.
