Hi All,

I have run into a problem I cannot solve. My client has a NUMBER of workstations in two different workgroups. One of the workgroups is strictly for accounting folks (3 PC's). They use an old DOS accounting app from Clarisys called TDL. Essentially the main accountant has all the TDL files on his D:\ in two folders, TDL and TDLFILES. TDL essentially contains the the application and related files while the TDLFILES folder contains the DATA (All the PC's are RUNNING Win2K SP4).

Essentially all the PC's have a shortcut to a batch file which resides in D:\TDLFILES. The remote PC's access the main accountant's PC by running a shortcut off their desktops to this batch file. All the PC's have mapped a drive to the main PC via F:, so \\station4\tdlfiles is mapped to their F:\ drives.

This all worked fine until last Friday when an attempt was made to upgrade the main PC to Win XP. The only change was made to the C:\ and the data on D:\ was not changed. Anyhow, the app stopped working so they put back on 2K...still wouldn't work. I discovered that somehow the files on D:\ had all become read only. Once changed I was able to get the main accountant working. BUT, for the freaking life of me I can not get the remote clients working?!?!?!? Does anybody have any ideas??? I have spent COUNTLESS hours on this and am getting desperate.

Any ideas about work arounds? I thought about putting XP back on the main PC and allowing the clients to CONNECT through the remote client. HELP!!!

Sorry if this is long...and I appreciate any and all help!
