Techie guys, any chance of any help please?

I have an issue were if you have Windows Vista on a pc, acting as a Server, or using Vista Business as a server, if you log into our program on that server, it doesnt allow ANY workstations to log in - says the network path is unavailable.

However

If you log the workstation in first, then log the server onto the program, it works fine.

This though, causes another problem.

You can only log 1 or 2 computers into our software with Vista acting as a server.

This also seems to affect Microsoft Access databases.

Anyone ever come across this or know what may be the cause?

Thanks

probably something to do with user access control, which seems to be the root cause of most of the vista problems i've seen so far. Go into user accounts in control panel and disable UAC for all users. see what happens

Can't say i have the same problem on mine though, Running Ultimate here, and my linux xbox connects from downstairs through smb/workgroup with no problems to stream music/movies etc whether the PC is logged in or not, then again, i turned UAC off within about 2 seconds of loading Vista onto my box

i've disabled it, still the same.
