What would cause an emulator unable to view the network UNC shares? When attempting to open any computer on the network via 'Open Path' or Internet Explorer, I am tossed "The network path was not found." followed by "Network resource cannot be found or you do not have permission to access the network." Things to note:
Connecting to the IP address does not work.
I am able to browse the internet via the emulator.
ActiveSync has been configured appropriately and I have installed the needed drivers for the adapter, and the emulator is cradled.
Firewall disabled/setup with correct forwardings.
Network folder permissions are setup properly.
What strikes me as odd is I have also attempted to browse UNC shares on a physical Windows Mobile 5 device, with the same issue. This leads me to believe something within our network settings is causing this but I'm not sure where to start. People have recommended checking ActiveDirectory security policies, but what policies affect UNC shares? This has turned into a rather serious issue because until I am able to resolve this, I am unable to go through with setting up merge replication. Has anyone experienced this and successfully resolved this issue?
Your network is looking for authentication.
I get that here at my work place, too.
As long as your network key is entered correctly, you should be able to try browsing to that same path 2 or 3 more times, still getting those same obnoxious ("The network path was not found." followed by "Network resource cannot be found or you do not have permission to access the network.") messages.
At one of those times, a login box should appear where you type in a Username, Password, and Domain.
You will also have the ability at this point to save your password so you are not prompted for it every time you attempt to access something across your network.
Now here's the real crapper: After you save your Username/Password combination, there does not appear to be any mechanism within the Windows Mobile device to change that password after it expires on your network. You will never be prompted again to change that password, either. You will only get one of those silly messages above because your password is incorrect.
The only solution to this seems to be to reset the device. I have had a question open with Microsoft for about 3 years now, and it has been passed from one forum to another. I've finally just decided that it must not be able to be done, but Microsoft has never written back to tell me that.

I recently updated my work computer (2015 Mac Book Pro). After logging in I got a request from system reading:
NEIKEv2Provider wants to use your confidential information stored in "Nord VPN" in your keychain.
I accidentally denied access and my computer will not connect to internet. although I am still connected to wifi. I know that this is the problem because on a different user I allowed permission and was able to connect no problem. I did some searching and found that the it lives in this directory:
/System/Library/Frameworks/NetworkExtension.framework/Plugins/NEIKEv2Provider.appex/Contents/MacOS/NEIKEv2Provider
So my question is: What is this and why is it required for internet connection and can I grant permissions to it or bypass it?
We had the same problem after installing a VPN client. Permissions appear to be missing. Check this link, especially the section "Important steps for a successful connection": https://protonvpn.com/support/protonvpn-mac-vpn-application/
I have a shared folder on a windows 10 host machine. I could access it from a windows 10 client machine, where I had set "remember credentials" when first accessing the share. I changed the password on the host. Now the client cannot access the shared folder. That was expected. But I could not find a way on the client to allow the user to re-establish access to the shared folder.
I expected it would ask for credentials again. However I got a network error saying that windows cannot access the host machine.
Based on a number of entries on various forums, I tried a few things. The credentials manager on the client does not show the host. I stopped and restarted file and printer sharing on the client, without any change in the result. Network diagnosis and the windows troubleshooter gave no help.
The problem was due to some previous connections remaining in the network table, even though disconnected, as presented by the "net use" command from the command prompt.
>net use
Status Local Remote Network
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disconnected \\192.168.1.71\IPC$ Microsoft Windows Network
Disconnected \\HOST\IPC$ Microsoft Windows Network
After deleting them (via "net use /delete") the next attempt to access the host asked for credentials. Yay!
I began the path to the solution when I tried
net use z: \\host\shared /user:admin password
which gave system error 1219 stating multiple connections to a server are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections and try again. Obviously, even though known to be disconnected, the entries prevented reconnection.
Here's a super doozy I can't figure out.
Windows 7 Home
I connect to work using Citrix desktop. I access a secure html site using my domain credentials, which triggers a download and starts Citrix
This worked normally up until this morning. I lost network connectivity when my router started behaving badly. After regaining the internet, I attempted to login, but was told my credentials were invalid and locked out. I tried chrome, Firefox and ie. Same result. I assumed i mistyped and got myself locked out.
Call to the network admin told me my account was fine.
Retried, still no joy. On a hunch, I switched to my wife's old profile on my computer since she used to work on it, and she uses the same Citrix desktop receiver.
Signed in as her, got to the desktop, opened ie, hit the same site, entered my credentials... Success! Authenticated and download initiated. Retried in Firefox and chrome, same story. No issues when logged into my wife's profile.
Logged out, logged back in as me, tried again, invalid credentials/locked out message.
So, I know my account isn't locked out. Admin confirmed, and I can access it through my wife's. It's not a browser issue, because all 3 work on my wife's windows profile.
Network adapter settings, firewall settings, router settings are all global so if it doesn't affect my wife's local profile, it shouldn't affect mine.
Why would my profile be failing the authentication process outrigh?. I'm convinced it's not even sending the credentials through, just failing outright. But I don't know why?
I'm going to attempt DNS flush tonight and if that fails, try an earlier system restore point. But I'll take any suggestions under advisement while i use my wife's local account as a work around.
Thx in advance.
So dumb.
Wife's local URL was slightly different. Her bookmark was simply:
www.[companyname].com/remote
which resolved to a much longer URL starting with:
assist.[companyname].com/Auth/XenApp/....
and i stupidly just typed in:
assist.[companyname].com
which resolved to
assist.[companyname].com/Auth/Xen[Company]/....
and thats all she wrote.
I am sharing a directory on a ubuntu server over samba. When I mount the samba share with mac os x then it works perfectly fine. However, when I mount the samba share on windows and I enter the exact credentials as before, I get the error message:
\172.20.1.2\share is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than on user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again.
I have totally no idea what went wrong. When I enter the credentials on windows I even excluded the domain by entering the username as \admin . Does anyone know what the problem is or what I can check to get further details about what the actual problem is?
The problem that somehow the windows machine already "cached" an old credential. After restarting the machine it works fine.
I'm writing a Windows device driver for a custom USB device, but am having trouble opening the device from my user program (using CreateFile) when the user program is run as a domain user. If I run as a local user, or as an administrator (or 'Run As' administrator) I can open the driver fine, but as a domain user GetLastError returns 5 (access denied).
I originally had this problem with local users too, and found I had to add the following SDDL entry to the .inf file, which solved the problem for local users:
HKR,,Security,,"D:P(A;;GA;;;SY)(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GRGW;;;BU)
From this reference:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff563667(v=vs.85).aspx
When I discovered that domain users did not have access I thought that simply adding them to this SDDL entry would give them access, but it doesn't seem to work: I still get access denied. I've even tried extreme solutions such as giving all users (everyone (WD), unauthenticated users etc.) full access, but this doesn't work either, which makes me think the problem lies elsewhere; i.e. something else is denying domain users access which takes precedent over the permit in the SDDL entry in the driver inf.
So my question is, what am I missing that is required to give domain users (or all users) access to connect to the driver? Or are there any other solutions to this problem (such as connecting to the driver as a service and then accessing this service from the user program)?
HKR,,Security,,"D:P(A;;GA;;;WD)"
set everyone can access, try it!
