I've just spent the weekend moving us to new small business servers running Windows Server 2003. After copying MOM over (we're still using 4.30) and confirming that it runs fine on the server, I figured all I had to do was repoint the workstations to the new location. However, when I tried to run MOM from one of the workstations, I got a "Cannot update the Cursor" error before even getting to the login screen. Click ignore a couple times and then I get Error -1705, File Access Denied. I then tried to uninstall and then reinstall the workstation, but I'm still getting the same error.

Anyone have a clue what's going on here?

We are running MOM 5.2 with SBS 2003.

I set it up with a mapped drive from each workstation to the shared momwin folder on SBS.

Maybe MOM keeps the info in the Registry?

Are all the permissions set correctly on the SBS end?
Can you access(browse) the folder from the workstations?

I finally figured it out. It was a permissions issue on SBS2003 that kept setting the directory to Read-only. Clearly, 2003 has a lot more security subtleties than 2000 that I'm going to have to get a handle.

Nonetheless, thanks for your response.
