VSS Newbie Question

I am having trouble connecting over the network to a vss database.  I have the vss installed on one server, and can connect to it fine from the client on my machine.  However, if I try from any other machine (using the same user credentials) I get "access to file rights.dat denied".

The help claims this is a network access issue, but I have the security on the directories completly open AND I can access it just fine from my machine.

Any ideas

    Well this is either a share permissions problem or a NTFS permissions. Normally the first thing you need access to is to be able to create a file in the data\loggedin directory the next thing is the ability to have full access to the data\rights.dat file.  You may want to check the explicit permissions on the rights.dat if necessary take ownership of the file. Depending on you set up you may have to grant the computer permissions as well. If you are using the same domain account typically this would be the set up.

    I hope this helps.
