How do I force windows to ask for credentials whenever I connect to a share or whenever I access a share folder?

maybe this thread will help you to do workaround

    Hi,
    Which Website Browser did you use?
    Did the issue happen only for you or for multiple users?
    Please test on other computer.
    Please double check anonymous access settings and conference policies, make sure “enable anonymous user access to conferences” enabled.

  • Mapped GID is changing while accessing CIFS share

    Hi guys
    We're seening a strange issue on our AD-bound macs that the mapped GIDs of files on a CIFS share are changing without any change on the filesystem.
    First of all let me explain our setup:
    1. All macs are joined to our active directory domain. The output of "dsconfigad -show" for the uid/gid mapping looks as follows:
    <snip>
    Advanced Options - Mappings
      Mapping UID to attribute       = not set
      Mapping user GID to attribute  = not set
      Mapping group GID to attribute = not set
      Generate Kerberos authority    = Enabled
    <snap>
    2. Macs access a cifs share on a netapp filer.
    3. Username and groupnames are mapped correctly. The output of "id rth" for my user looks as follows:
    uid=1973125731(rth) gid=2108864217(OSAG\corp) groups=2108864217(OSAG\corp),....
    Problem:
    When I mount the netapp CIFS share and enter it, everything looks good:
    <snip>
    rth@mac-rth:~$ ls -l /Volumes/os/it
    total 696
    drwx------+ 1 rth  OSAG\corp  16384 Nov 29 11:48 admin
    drwx------+ 1 rth  OSAG\corp  16384 Mar 29  2004 corphtmlstats
    <snap>
    However when I execute a second ls a few seconds later, it can't map the group anymore:
    <snip>
    rth@mac-rth:~$ ls -l /Volumes/os/it
    total 696
    drwx------+ 1 rth  2181038096  16384 Nov 29 11:48 admin
    drwx------+ 1 rth  2181038096  16384 Mar 29  2004 corphtmlstats
    <snap>
    It seems that the mapping doesn't work anymore even tough nothing has changed in the meantime. The same behaviour can be seen on any folders on this share. With the first ls everything seems to be OK and with the 2nd execution the mapping is not correct anymore.
    From time to time it happens, that the mapping is correct again for single files or folders for a short period of time.
    Has anyone seen a similar behaviour so far?
    Thanks for your help.
    Cheers

    Sounds like an issue that has to do with JavaScript Origin policy. You'll have to use Domain Relaxing for this. Read all about it here:

  • Non-Domain Computers No Longer Access Domain Shares

    Hey All,
    I have a few Windows 2003 servers running AD on a domain.
    I have some users who have AD accounts on the domain but have been accessing from computers (PC and MAC) that are not on the domain.  They would simply connect \\servername\share.  They would get the prompt to authenticate...They would enter their
    Domain AD Credentials and access the share.
    Now they are unable to access the share with their credentials.  Unless I login with the administrative account.  They can access the share from a computer that IS on the domain though with their credentials.  This problem only appears to
    happen on the file servers.  Any credential can authenticate on the DCs regardless of whether their computer is on the domain or not.  I'm a little stumped here and would really appreciate any help.  
    Thanks.

  • Access Denied trying to access file shares with correct credentials

    I am getting the Access Denied message when trying to connect to network shares from Windows 10 (9926)
    When trying to access a network share, I get the username and password prompt, and it always fails.
    Using the same credentials on a Windows 8.1 machine to connect to the same shares and it will work.
    Shares can be hosted on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 8.1, Linux Samba, NAS, or even \\127.0.0.1 and all will fail with the same message.
    But you can access the shares hosted on the the windows 10 machine from other remote machines.
    Credentials have been entered in the format of: domain\username,
    machinename\username, and just username
    All machines are on the same workgroup\domain
    NOTE: Typing in an invalid machine name will also bring up the credential prompt.
    I.e. entering \\QWERTY will still ask you for your username and password and fail immediately.
    The same shares worked in the version before 9926

  • Can't access Network share from Windows 8 computer

    I have a clean install of Windows 8 x64 running in a workgroup environment. I can access multiple computer/NAS shares except one share off a partifular NAS. This share is accessible from other computers and the other shares on the NAS are accessible from
    this Windows 8 computer. I have cheked the credentials and they are fine, added them under the credential manager, tried to map a drive and selected use other credentials etc but it continually says "Windows cannot access \\ComputerName\ShareName"
    you do not have permission. I have permission and nothing is wrong with the permissions or the server. This is driving me crazy if anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.
    I have tried:
    1. Mapping drive with ip address e.g. \\ip address\sharename
    2. disabled ipv6, made sure netbios enabled, made sure client for ms networks enabled.
    3. Setup a new account on server, doesn't work either.
    4. All sharing options enabled. I even modified the permissions on the share for "everyone" full access and it still didn't work.
    Has to be something with this windows 8 machine.

    Dear all,
    Hi am using 2012 r2 server and i have created share folder ,and added the user Id in that share folder but while accessing in windows pc (local admin) its opning all share folder , but its not asking password if i click in share folder it shows you do not have
    permission to access . but till lastweek it was worked fine . and if i tried in administrator login its asking password authentication. Please help me ASAp.

  • Safari keeps asking for Keychain Access

    Everytime I use Safari after some time it asks for Keychain access. I disabled the autofill forms feature already, but it does not stop asking. Does anybody know how to keep Safari from doing this without disabling the password protection of my keychain?
    Honestly said, this erraneous behaviour keeps me from using Safari as Firefox does not make such strange attempts to use Keychain.

    I didn't think before reading this discussion to be related, but now I tend to believe it may be. I've recently started using Papers.app and to get access to some publications under institutional subscription I have to configure both Papers.app and Safari to be authenticated connecting to Internet through my institution's proxy. The problem is that now the keychain access manager keeps asking authorization every now and then what really has become a heavy nuisance, not only occurring while a keep Safari open, but also while using any other application which try to connect to the Internet such as iTunes or Fission.app. Before I started using Papers.app I had devoted one browser to download articles nder subscription in order to limit such nuisance to the time I was browsing them. However, using Papers.app I've been forced to configure Safari to that purposes, reproducing the annoying effects every time I open any application which are connecting to the Internet. I posted a message in the Papers.app but nobody has replied so far. I thought of changing the browser used by Papers.app would help, unfortunately, I couldn't find any way to get so. Now that it seems there is a way to prevent the system from asking for keychain access, it may fix the problem. This is the message I posted in Papers' Support Forum. I'd really appreciate any help or suggestion:
    Can Papers.app use a different browser other than Safari to get authentication from my institution's proxy?
    I am at the University of Barcelona (UB), Spain, we also have an automatic proxy-cache configuration URL (like johnraekwon at the U of Manchester)
    http://www.bib.ub.edu/pac/proxy.pac
    Every time I open the browser I've configured to connect through your University proxy, I get a drop down menu to authenticate with and then I proceed to the URL I head to, only now with UB credentials. More or less like johnraekwon has to do.
    Unfortunately this aunthentication doesn't last for long, you are often requested to authenticate again and again. This nuisance made me decide to devote a browser different from the default browser to download articles, and it's being working rather satifactorily while I only used that browser to download papers from the Internet.
    Now that I tried configuring Papers.app to download those articles which requiring subscription I've found that it only works as long as Safari is configured in the same way, that is, it has to authenticated by the proxy to get access to the Internet. I wouldn't mind using Safari exclusively to browse papers. The problem is that most other applications are also using Safari as default browser and it doesn't seem it can be changed, among them iTunes, which I usually open to download podcasts. Since I've configured Safari to get access through my institution's proxy, it keeps asking me to authenticate, and halting every task in process by doing so.
    For most purposes I don't need to get authorized access, so I wish my default browser not being configured in such a painful manner.
    I'd like to know whether I can change some of Papers.app options to replace Safari as default browser by, I say, Firefox, therefore limiting those repetitive authentications to just the time I'm browsing papers. It let Safari idle to be configured as a default browser to smoothly work for other purposes such as iTunes.
    Thanks for the interest. Any idea will be welcomed.

    Whenever I try to login from a windows XP machine, access is always denies.  How can I set up permissions for anyone to access the share?

    Ok, did you look at that page I recommended?  It gives you the steps.
    You don't have to create the file, just do, if the windows user is john, and has a password on the MS box of 1234
    smbpasswd -a john
    It'll ask for his  password, type in 1234, it'll ask for confirmation and type it in again.
    On the MS box, user john might have to log off and logon.
    However, again, I recommend taking a look at that page, trying the nbtstat and such.  Actually, I hadn't realized how dated that page is, I have to redo it, but the tips there should still be useful.

  • Random error accessing CIFS shares from Windows

    I am setting up some CIFS shares to be used from Windows clients and in the process I had some random problems accessing the shares.
    In hope of finding the answer I checked the CIFS Service and the Active Directory Service, and while watching the screen for Active Directory Service I saw that the "Selected Domain Controller" changed from one to another. I now stayed within this screen and noticed that the "Selected Domain Controller" continued to change and then I found the problem, because an unknown Domain Controller appeared. The IP was 216.150.17.8
    I found that when ever this Domain Controller was the selected one, all access to CIFS shares from Windows clients failed! This is correct, because the 216.150.17.8 of course is unaware of all users in Our Domain
    So the Questions are:
    - what is happening?
    - and how to solve this?
    - why is a Domain Controller 216.150.17.8 sometimes the Selected Controller?
    - where does this 216.150.17.8 come from?
    Have You seen anything like this?

    I now have found out why the DC changes - it is because the CIFS service is restarting ;-(
    This is a log snip

    It seems to happen when I access the share and thereby force a uservalidation
    Any ideas?

  • Error while accessing menus in Runtime workbench from SLD

    Hi I am getting following error while accessing menus in runtime workbench from SLD.( example: SLD->runtime workbench->component monitorung ->display)
    "Error during communication with System Landscape Directory: User credentials are invalid or user is denied access "
    I am using PISUPER to login to SLD and i am able to login to XI using this ID. I could find role -SAP_XI_RWB_SERV_USER - also in the user id profile of PISUPER.

    Hi Karthik,
    Check if the roles are generated. Or ask your basis team to check.
    IF the roles are generated then you have to check if exchange profile if the right username is mentioned or not.  IF username is right then reenter the password.
    Check the following parameter in exchange profile.
    com.sap.aii.rwb.serviceuser.name
    com.sap.aii.rwb.serviceuser.pwd
