When we first switched to DFS we had a couple of issues with that. Our users only know Mapped drives not UNC. We had an issue with not mapping the drives persistent. When we changed the mapping statements in the login script all those issues disappeared.

I think it may have started after we migrated our home directories to DFS paths, and have not had much chance to look into it yet. For me, it doesn't always happen, just pops up periodically-is that what you're seeing (intermittent) or does it always happen? I've confirmed it's not permissions and not quota-related-hadn't tried the run as admin yet. -Bonnie From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, December 13, 2008 5:56 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error Getting this on an xpsp3 pc w/ office 2007sp1. I poked around there's about 500k hits that match with no reasonable answer. A lot of people were talking about usb drives. This is a network share in a 2003 AD environment. If I do a runas and run as administrator the problem goes away, making the user a domain admin does not however. If the user hits Save As.. and then clicks ok he gets prompted to overwrite hits yes and it works. So it's not *really* a permissions error. I tried disabling all add-ins (although Symantec AV is on the machine, it wasn't listed as an available add-in). I re-applied all permissions on the share. Any one? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
