This pc is representing itself as workgroup/computername. It is not trusted on your domain I am sure. I don't know of a way to trust a workgroup. I think the only thing you can do is give explicit rights at the share level to the workgroup/computername or workgroup/username. Is the box you are sharing a 2000 server? Does it have IIS installed? If so why not do a web share of this folder? Just some thoughts.

I have a mixed 4.0 and 2000 domain. My company just recently purchased another company that runs on a win 98 workgroup. (I know I know it hurt me too) I have installed a firewall and created a VPN between the new company (in LA) and myself (in NY). I need the users to see some docs I have on a shared folder on one of my 2000 boxes. When I try to map the drive, I get prompted for a password. Not a username AND password. Just a password. I have tried every password I know of in my 2000 domain, but none work. What user is this win 98 box representing itself as? What password is it looking for? One person suggested making a duplicate domain user that matches the workgroup users. I tried this and it still didn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
