Correct. BDC can UNC to a BDC resource, and PDC can UNC to a PDC
resource, but neithert can UNC to Th. other.
I will start looking at the other suggestions you sent.
Thanks!

Yeah--and the same thing doesn't work from the PDC, right? Also,
from the BDC, can you connect to a share on the PDC, such as \\pdc
\netlogon, or does that fail? If so, then the BDC's computer
account might be out of sync with the domain.

The only way I could think of to test this was to fire up IE, and
put \
\BDC_name\profiles_share into the address bar. This did return a
directory listing of the profiles. Is this kind of what you were
referring to?

Assuming the server service is running, can you connect back to a
UNC path share of the BDC while on the BDC? If so, the suggestion
about the DCs being out of sync could be correct and you might have
to look at using tools to reset the computer account on the BDC--
IIRC that would be nltest and/or netdom?

There are no WINS servers set on the BDC, and I don't believe WINS is
running anywhere. There is no WINS service on the PDC. The BDC is
using LMHOSTS. I can ping the PDC both by name and IP.

How is WINS? Can the BDC get name lookups to the PDC and the domain
name that way?

Subject: Roaming profiles issue
Good morning,
I'm having a roaming profile issue this morning on a (don't laugh)
Windows NT domain. A few of our legacy PCs login to the old NT
domain
for their roaming profiles. When users login, they get an error
that
their profile is not available.
There is a PDC and a DBC. Profiles are on the BDC. The PDC and BDC
can see each other, and I can browse the shares on both, but when I
go
into the shares, I get an inaccessible error. From my laptop, which
is not part of the domain, I can open files on the PDC, but not on
the
BDC. In the event viewer of the BDC I'm getting an Event ID:3096.
The Windows NT domain controller for this domain could not be
located.
Any idea what might be wrong? We had a power outage last night, but
this is the only issue we're running into.
Thanks,
