JSI Tip 2121. Windows 2000 issues 'Error 5 Access is denied', when you connect using \\ComputerName?

When you type net use * \\ComputerName\ShareName or net view \\ComputerName, you may receive:

Error 5 Access is denied
Logon Failure: The target account is incorrect

You may, or may not, be successful using the DNS FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name).

Check the Active Directory for a duplicate computer account. If you find it, remove the duplicate, and restart the client.
