Unable to access network share files from one server


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Unable to access network files (e.g. \\servername\c$) from newly build windows server 2012.

FYI, By IP address of target network server we can access the ping, RDP as well as network files, and if we do 2012 server reboot then this will work for 2-3 days or longer as a week. 

This issue occurred for just for one single server others 700 servers are working as expected.

Guys, please help me for this issue.

Then how it will works after win2012 server reboot?? 

 

One more information I would like to add, If I tried to access same network server from any windows 2008 or other 2012 servers it is working fine. but same userID this is not working in one particular windows server 2012. 

And what error do you get?  From a command line when you try and access \\servername\c$ what do you get for an error?

 

net use \\servername\c$

 

do you get access denied and asked for credentials?  Do you have any other sessions open to this machine?  You say you can access not admin shares just fine?

 

Are you sure the shares are there?  They could be recreated on reboot.. So what does net share look like when ran on the server?

 

exmaple

That points to this box you can not access other server from having a session open to the server that does not have the rights to access the admin shares to me - your saying it can access other network shares?  Check what sessions this machine has open.  For example if something mapped to this server as user X, you can then not access server as user Y.

Your OP wasn't clear, sorry.

Maybe someone is messing around with permissions or they are getting reset...

What is the exact error when you try to access the network share?

Hi Budman,

 

net use \\servername\c$  

Got below error message,

 

System error 64 has occurred.
 
The specified network name is no longer available.
 
by IP it's gave success msg...
 
But same I have tried on my 2008 server there I got, The command completed successfully message
Also i have tried from three different userID from different machines and we successfully access the \\servername\c$.

So that is a really generic error.. what do you get when you do net view \\servername ?

 

Your saying you can access all the other shares on this box, just not C$ from this location?

Same issue for \\servername, or \\Servername\c$ or servername\D$... 

My concern is only that what is the reason that am not able to access network server from one 2012 server????

 

let me clear the scenario, 

 

e.g. I have below servers in my organization. 

 

PC1 = Hostname is SCCMwin2012

PC2 = Hostname is SQLwin2008

PC3 = Hostname is webwin2008

PC4 = Hostname is SCOMwin2012

PC5 = Hostname is DCwin2008

PC6 = Hostname is DHCPwin2008

PC7 = Hostname is Serverwin2008

PC8 = Hostname is server2win2012

 

All above machine in one domain, and can be ping each other, accessing data by using \\servername\**$ (any drive) but but but.

 

from PC1(SCCMwin2012) can not access data of server PC2 (SQLwin2008). (\\servername, \\servername\C$ any share not working here.) if I do reboot SCCMwin2012 server then only able to access SQLwin2008 data from network.

 

pls let me know if in case still any concerns. 

\\servername doesn't work....hmmm, active directory?  if so what are your dns servers in ip properties (ipconfig/all)...sounds like  you are trying to resolve by name and you can't, if you can connect via IP address.

Found following events in windows server 2012 machine.... {ID 30620, Warning_Microsoft-Windows-SMBClient Microsoft-Windows-SMBClient/Operational - Connection to server \servername IP Address x.x.x.x:445 was aborted.}

 

FYI. NIC MTU is set as 1500 on source and destination machine. 

So your saying this SCCMwin2012 can not access any other server?  And if you reboot it you can only access the one SQLwin2008 box?

 

how are you checking mtu? 

 

C:\>netsh interface ipv4 show subinterfaces

   MTU  MediaSenseState   Bytes In  Bytes Out  Interface

  1500                1   21162628    1569741  vpn

 

This show 1500?

Yes, I checked MYU by using same command as you mentioned. and I sow 1500 MTU from that command output.

 

SCCMwin2012 can access all servers which are listed in my previous post, except  SQLwin2008... I can ping SQLwin2008 from SCCMwin2012 server but can not access the RDP as well as data from SQLwin2008 machine. 

"but can not access the RDP as well as data from SQLwin2008 machine. "

 

Well RDP is completely different -- do you get prompted for access and denied, or get told can not find.. What error do you get when you try and RDP to its IP address.  And your saying other machines can rdp to sqlwin2008 just fine.

Budman,

As per the weekend patching we have rebooted SQLwin2008 server, hence as I told earlier post that after reboot issue getting resolved and now we all are accessing the server resources from our WinSCCM2012 machine.

 

FYI error msg: "Specified network name is no longer available" while accessing network data.. (\\servername\c$) if we do \\10.xx.xx.xx\c$ it's accessible perfectly. 

 

I'll keep you posted once issue re-occur.

    • Mozilla fixes Firefox crashes on Windows by Taras Buria Mozilla is rolling out yet another update for the Firefox browser. Version 140.0.2 follows the just-released version 140.0.1 to address more bugs causing crashes on Windows in certain scenarios. Here is what the release notes say: Fixed a startup crash on Windows experienced by some users. (Bug 1974259) According to a post on Bugzilla, Mozilla's bug tracker for Firefox, the browser crashes with the ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE or ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER error. This happens when Exploit Protection is enabled in Windows security settings. While that is a feature a regular user is unlikely to fiddle with, Exploit Protection is enabled for apps from the Microsoft Store. As such, crashes are most likely occurring for users with Firefox downloaded from the Microsoft Store. Still, if Exploit Protection is enabled globally, "standard" Firefox downloaded from the official website also fails. Note that the bug does not affect newer Firefox versions. Now, with Firefox 140.0.2 out, the browser should no longer crash regardless of your security settings or the browser origin. For reference, you can find the release notes for the latest update here; for version 140.0.1 (which fixed a couple of crash-inducing bugs), here; and for version 140.0 (a major release), here. As usual, you can update Firefox by heading to Menu > Help > About Firefox. The browser is available on the official website, in the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 and 11 users, or on Neowin's Software page.

    • Lol, sounds like you're not up to date with reality and are just repeating what the salesman told ya. Here's a little insight for you: Electric Cars Are Way Less Reliable Than ICE Cars, Says Consumer Reports. Alas, you're entitled to your wrong opinion.
    • misleading its one word to describe what M$ have done, windows 10 perform better on older hardware and even on new hardware sometimes, windows 11 its a mess and no one want to use it for many good reasons, until they listen its customers read the feedback hub comments and maybe backoff its forced requiremens, they are having a vista and 8 moment.
    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.5.0 by Razvan Serea Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project (which is no longer maintained) and contains many additional features and bug fixes. As the continuation of the original Media Player Classic, MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles. Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later Options > Player > History You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel. You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown. You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player. Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting) Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only) A-B repeat - You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers. You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video Menu > View > Pan&Scan This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below).

You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites Put yt-dlp.exe or youtube-dl.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder. Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder. Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don't want to put it in MPC-HC folder. Play HDR video This requires using madVR or MPC Video Renderer. After installation these renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D): Options > Subtitles > Misc Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability.
