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.

    • Microsoft lets you have extra year of Windows 10 updates for free by Taras Buria The end of Windows 10 support is quickly approaching, which means users are facing a tough choice: leave Windows 10 behind and update to Windows 11 or stay and either accept the risk of using unsupported software or enroll in the extended security update program. If you plan to go with the latter option, Microsoft has some important details and good news for you. Microsoft finally announced program enrollment details for Windows 10 users. Starting today, Windows 10 Insiders can access a new enrollment wizard through the Settings app and push notifications to set up their systems for the Extended Security Update program (ESU). More importantly, Microsoft is introducing free enrollment options, allowing Windows 10 users to remain supported for one more year without paying Microsoft a single dollar. Now, you can get 12 more months of security updates using one of the following three options: Use the Windows Backup app to sync your settings to the cloud Pay 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points Pay $30 (local prices may vary) This is the first time that Microsoft has made the Extended Security Update program available for consumers. Previously, this program was reserved for commercial customers only. However, four years after the release of Windows 11, Windows 10 remains the dominant desktop operating system. At this scope, Microsoft cannot just drop hundreds of millions of users behind. Microsoft's initial plan was to give customers 12 months of extra updates for $30, but now, the company is seemingly giving up on that. While the $30 option is still available, the program is pretty much free for every consumer, which addresses some of the concerns I expressed earlier. 1,000 Microsoft Reward points is a pretty small price to pay, and the Windows Backup option is entirely free. With these two new options, Microsoft makes security updates more accessible to users (governments are already warning users about the end of Windows 10 support), giving them more time to plan their migration to Windows 11 without sending their computers to the landfill and generating thousands of tons of e-waste. The enrollment wizard is now available to Windows 10 Insiders. Next month, it will be available outside the Insider program as part of the July non-security updates. Broad availability is expected by mid-August. Commercial organizations can also enroll their devices today using the Microsoft Volume Licensing Program. The price is $61 per device for one year. For Windows 365, these Cloud PCs are eligible for extended security updates at no extra cost. It is worth noting that the program only grants one year of security updates, from October 15, 2025, to October 13, 2026. However, those who need more support can opt for third-party solutions like 0patch, which promises five more years of security updates. The end of mainstream Windows 10 support means that the company will stop providing technical support and feature/security updates outside the ESU program. As such, many developers will start dropping Windows 10 support in their products, reduce available functionality, and more. However, Windows 10 PCs will not stop working overnight. Moreover, some of Microsoft-made services will continue receiving support. Those include Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Defender updates. Microsoft 365 apps will be getting new features until August 2026 and security updates until October 10, 2028. For many users, the biggest problem with Windows 11 is not its controversial taskbar or Start menu (which is getting a big redesign, mind you). Steeper hardware requirements prevent many users from updating their still-capable computers to a supported release. To mitigate this, Microsoft is willing to offer free security updates for one year instead of lowering Windows 11's hardware requirements. Several months ago, Microsoft doubled down on those and stressed that Windows 11's minimum hardware requirements would not be lowered.

From broad daylight corruption being legal (a.k.a. lobbying), to deporting "illegal immigrants" from a land that was stolen to begin with. Alas, can't ever expect true justice from a land built from the ground up with injustice...
