External links to XP from 2000 [google searches] [logical disk]
Q: Im trying to find out why when I try to connect to an XP computer in our network from a 2000 Pro machine it gives me errors like “Connection Failed Logical Disk Manager”. Ive done several Google searches and have tried all the results Ive found with no success. 977 503 Going the opposite and try to make an XP machine to connect to a 2000pro machine also mistakes, giveing me a “You do not have access to Logical Disk Manager”.
Im running XP with SP2 and I have admin rights on all machines. I have no problems to the XP machine using IE and the things away. Only when using the Computer Management console, try to look at Disk Management and Information System, was uncooperative. Thanks for any help.
Best Answer: The answer seems pretty obvious, unless I'm missing something:
System properties-> Remote-> Allow users to connect remotely to this computer

Re:I'm having the same issue. I can use LDM locally on all machines, but can only do the remote LDM from an SP1 machine. My laptop which is SP2 cannot do remote LDM. So it seems like it works locally, SP1 to SP1, SP1 to SP2, but not SP2 to SP1. I may do a test on one of my SP1 machines and upgraded it to SP2 to see if SP2 to SP2 will work with remote LDM.

Re:The Firewall on all machines is off, as we have large firewalls already going. However even with it off I tried to let port 445 through, which Microsoft suggests as part of there non-working solution.

Re:Well it seems to be a SP2 issue. After trying with Windows XP Sp1 and haveing it work, it's the only option left. After looking through SP2 changes the only thing I found so far is that SP2's Group policy is not backward compatible. I have no idea why this would be causeing what I'm haveing problems with but who knows. If anyone else has any ideas about what in SP2 would be causeing conflict, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Re:Yep, useing DM locally on all machines works fine. Useing it remotely does not work, you can't see anything, just the error message. After talking with some people, someone suggested that it might not be possible do to 2000 and XP useing different remote protocols, dcom for 2000, and something else for XP. However my boss believes that it worked under SP1, so I'll be running a test on a SP1 machine tommarow. I'll update after I've tested.

Re:Can you use the disk management on the local machine?
Can you also use DM on the 'remote' machine?
If you use it on the remote machine, can you see the networked drives?
