Message: "....is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The semaphore timeout period has expired."
Resolutions:
1) make sure no any firewall
running.
2) make sure you have created the same workgroup, and the same username on
w2k/xp for logging on a remote computer.
3)
check user's rights.
4) you may want to enable guest account on w2k/xp.
5) if you are using simple file sharing, you may try to disable it and re-share the
drive manually.
6) if it is mixed OS (win98, NT, ME and W2K/XP) network, enable
NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
7) make sure the Computer Browser service is started if all computers are w2k/xp.
8)
stop Computer Browser service on wwin9x, ME and NT if this is a mixed OS network.
9) cache
credential by using net use
\\computername\share /user:username command (it is better to have the username logon
shared computer).
10) if you have tried enabling netbios over tcp/ip but doesn't work, you may try
to load netbeui (loading netbeui may slow your network).
11) Make sure the server service is running.

"...not available. The server is not configured for transactions"
Type command "net share" on the shared computer. If there is not a share named "IPC$" in the share list, use the command "net share ipc$" to create it.
"An extended error has occurred" or "Access Denied" Symptoms: When mapping a network drive using net use or using the net view command to view a different computer in the domain, you may receive: "An extended error has occurred" or "Access Denied" error messages.2) Make sure you have granted enough licenses for clients accessing.
" computername is not accessible. No permission to access the resources"
If both win2000/XP and win9x can see the workgroup but only win2000/XP can access a win 2000/XP computer, and win9x gets the above error, check the group name. If they are the same name,
Check these:
1) are
you sure the logon user has permission to the shared folder?
2) have you tried to logon
using the same user name and password of the accessed win2k/XP computer?
3)
the last and risky one, if you enable guest account in the accessed win2000/XP computer, can
you access now?
"Multiple connections to the server or shared resource are not allowed"
Symptom: when attempting to join a domain, you may receive "Multiple connections to the server or shared resource are not allowed. Please disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again."
Resolution: try using net use /d from a command to clear all your mapped connections before joining the domain. You can also disconnect the mapped drive in Windows Explorer by right-click the mapped drive and select disconnection.
"Network path not found" in a domain network 1
"Network path not found" in a domain network 2
Symptom: some w2k/xp can't join the domain randomly. The DNS server is multihomed server..
Resolution: You can find some computer browser errors on the DNS server. Disable one of two NICs will work. More resolutions can be found in browser Issue page.

"Network path not found" in a workgroup network - error 53
RESOLUTIONS:
1) Make sure that File and Printer Sharing is enabled on on the
shared computer.
2) Make sure that shared machine has something
shared.
3) Make sure that you have created the same workgroup and
logon the same username if you try to access w2k/xp network.
4) Make
sure that you have enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP if this is a mixed OS
network.
"Not accessible. You may not have permission to use this network resource"
Symptom: Your WinXP, in a peer-to-peer network, may receive the following error when you double-click My Network Places/Computers Near Me: <Workgroup Name> is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this network resource. Resolution: 1) Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP on one or more computers in the workgroup. To do that, go to properties of Local Area Connection>properties of Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)>General> Advanced>WINS, check Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP (If you have a DHCP-assigned IP address, select Use NetBIOS setting from the DHCP server ). 2) Make sure the Computer Browser service is started.
"Not enough server storage is available to process this command." error.
SYMPTOMS: When accessing shares on a server from a client, you may receive "Not enough server storage is available to process this command." error. You may receive this message and Event ID: 2011 after you install Norton Antivirus for Windows.
Resolution:
1) The registry
value IRPstackSize may be not explicitly present. To increase the value of the
parameter, go to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\
LanmanServer\Parameters. If the key is not present, choose Add Value in the
Registry Editor. The Value Name should be IRPStackSize and the Data Type is
REG_DWORD.
2) Remove any unnecessary entries from this value in the registry,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters\NullSessionPipes.
3) Disable Norton antivirus to see if that will fix the problem.
Refer to MS Q106167 and Q177078 for more details.
"Not Enough Storage to Complete Operation"Symptoms: you can ping the server by ip and name but can't map the shared drive by using net use \\ip or \\servername. If you try, you may receive the "No logon server available".
Resolutions: This sounds like cache credential issue. 1) make sure the computers in the same network, the same workgroup/domain and have created the same username. 2) use net use \\servername\sharename password /user:username to cache the credential.

"System error 6118 has occurred. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available." Symptoms: When using the net view \\computername command, you receive the following error message: System error 6118 has occurred. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available.2) Open port # (UDP and TCP) from 135 through 139 and/or 445. To do this, go to the properties of the connection>Advanced>ICF>Settings>Services. For Microsoft file sharing SMB: add (UDP and TCP) ports from 135 through 139. For direct-hosted SMB traffic without network basic input/output system (NetBIOS) uses port (TCP and UDP) 445. Note: the external and internal port numbers should be identical.
"The password is incorrect. Try again"
Symptom: While trying to access a win2000/XP computer and type administrator password on Enter Network Password screen in the same peer-to-peer workgroup, you may get Error: The password is incorrect. Try again.
Resolution:
1) You need to setup every user that needs access to the shared
folder on every computer they have to connect to. Then give the proper user
proper permission to the shared folder.
2) logon the same user and password.
3)
as always, you can try to enable a guest account on the accessed machine.
"There are no entries on the list"
Symptom: when using net view \\remotecomputer command, you may receive "There are no entries on the list". And you may have a problem to access the remote computer.
Resolution: 1) If there are no file or print shares
on the computer, the net view command displays a "There are no entries in
the list" message. So, make sure there are file or print shares on the computer. Or to use
net share command to check sharing status.
2) Make sure no firewall running because the firewall may block sharing.
"Unable to access Computers Near Me" or "Workgroup is not accessible" errors
Symptom: When several Win2000/XP computers are configured as members of a workgroup in a peer-to-peer network environment and you click on Computers Near Me in My Network Places or workgroup name Entire Network, the following error message may appear: "Cannot Access 'Computers Near Me' " or "Workgroup is not accessible" errors.
Resolution: 1) NetBIOS over TCP/IP. To do that, go
to the properties of TCP/IP>Advanced>WINS. If you are using a static Internet
Protocol (IP) address, click Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. If you have a
DHCP-assigned IP address, click Use NetBIOS setting from the DHCP server.
2) No Master Browser or too many browsers may cause this issue. Check
Browser issue.
Symptom: When you attempt to browse your network by opening Entire Network in My Network Places/Network Neighborhood, you may receive the following error message: Unable to Browse Network.
Check Lists: 1)
have you loaded the NIC or is it working?
2) have you loaded common protocol,
TCP/IP?
3) does the Computer browser work?
4) have you enable file and printer sharing in
the accessed computer?
5) is the workstation service running?
