i have Lan, all computers are windows 7 proffisional and one machine is windows 2003 , workgroup .
i made shared folder in windows2003 , some computers can access the shared folder and others can not.

when i open network , i see the 2003 computer, when i try to access it , it asked for user name and password.
the user is administrator for all , when i enter the user and password from many computers in the lan it is work correctly but in one machine with the same settings its says , you have no permession to access this computer.
 
Typically this is a product of an incorrect username and password being used or cached in the credentials vault.
When prompted for the username and password make sure you use the correct format. MachineName that you are trying to accesss followed by a backslash "\" then the UserName of a user on that machine with the appropriate credential and then the password for that user on that machine, like in your case
W2k3serverName\Administrator
Password of Administrator Account on the W2k3 Server.
Additionally double check the work group name and make sure all are identical, the time, date and time zone settings make sure they are all sync'd, check and confirm that there is no duplication of NetBIOS names (machine names), IP addresses or MAC addresses, And any 3rd party security suite that is running on the problem machine (Win7) that makes it unique or different from the other machines that are not having this issue.

Thank you Trouble

The problem was in time/date settings . I fixed date settings to be the same as other machines and every thing worked fine.

time/date !!! this was the last thing i will think of it , i check netbios and IPs and every think in ur post , the last thing i tried was time/date !!!

Thank You very much again and Best Regardes
