SYMPTOMS
When you try to access a share on a Microsoft Windows 2000 server in an Active Directory domain, you may receive the following error message:

\\ \ is not accessible.

Access Denied



CAUSE
This problem occurs when you have an account on a Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Kerberos v5 realm and the Windows 2000 server is in a trust relationship with MIT Kerberos realm.

When you request a resource, such as a shared folder, you computer typically sends a request for access to the Windows 2000 Key Distribution Center (KDC) for permission. Instead, Microsoft Windows XP sends the request for access to the MIT KDC, and that generates the &quot;Access Denied&quot; error message.
