My laptop is a member of our company's domain. Under SP2 I could access a
share on my laptop from a non domain computer by specifying access via a user
account local to the laptop. upgrading to SP3 has changed this capability.
The access still works when the laptop is attached to the domain via either
the lan or via VPN, but when the laptop is detached from the domain, access
to the share is denied with the following message: There are currently no
logon servers availablel to service the logon request. It appears that under
SP3 the OS attempts to validate the credentials of the local account via the
domain BEFORE trying to validate it locally, but if the domain validation
fails, under SP3 the validation bails with the error message. It never
attempts a local validation.

Do you use a shortcut to access the share? If so, try navigating to
the folder 'manually'.
 
Re: Authentication change between SP2 and SP3 denies access to loc

The authentication failure occurs when trying to map the network drive when
the laptop is disconnected from the corporate lan. It suceeds when the
laptop is on the lan.
