Hello All,
As stated in the title, while logged in to a domain account (which is part of the domain admins group), I am unable to access network machines via their IP address ( \\x.x.x.x\c$ ) however, I am able to access the machines via their domain name (\\ComputerName\c$). Also, while logged in as a LOCAL admin, I am able to access any network PC by either method.
While logged in as a domain admin, if I attempt to navigate to \\x.x.x.x\, I receive an error stating:
"\\x.x.x.x is not accessible. You might not have permission to use the network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permission.
Account restrictions are preventing this user from signing in. For example: blank passwords aren't allowed, sign-in times are limited, or a policy restriction has been enforced."
While logged in as a domain admin, if i attempt to navigated to \\x.x.x.x\c$, I receive an error stating:
"Windows cannot access \\x.x.x.x\c$. Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network. To try to identify and resolve network problems, click Diagnose."
When I click on "see details" drop down, I see error code: 0x80004005 Unspecified Error.
While logged in as a local admin, I receive none of these issues.
