| Quote: | Just connected an Iomega 120GB USB 2.0 external drive to computer A.
Computer
B is networked with A and can share files on computer A's internal hard
drive. B can see the new Iomega drive in Explorer, but can't access it.
Message says drive is not accessible, might not have permission. Also says
"Not enough server storage is available to process this command." I've
increased the IRPStackSize considerably with no success. Also have tried
classical and simple file sharing. Any other ideas would be appreciated.

The problem is on the machine you are attempting to connect to,
not the machine where you see the error message.
On the computer you are attempting to connect to,
Check the event viewer for an event ID 2011.
Usual fix :
You need to fix a parameter called IRPStackSize
On the computer you are attempting to connect to,
Set the IRPStackSize back to the default (15 ).
Perform the following steps:
1. Start the registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe).
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\lanmanserver\parameters.
3. Double-click IRPStackSize
(or if this registry setting doesn't exist,create it of
type DWORD and ensure the case is correct).
4. Change the base to decimal, set the value to 15, and click OK.
5. Reboot the computer.
Norton AV is usual suspect for breaking it.
There's a KB article about this, too.
Antivirus Software May Cause Event ID 2011 (Q177078)
