Can not copy files from Windows 2003 server over network

It seemed quite strange.

I have a share folder with full read/write permission on my Windows 2003 server. With a XP client, I can create a new folder on the share folder, and I can copy files to it normally, but I can not copy these files back to my client PC. I tried use ftp,and webdav to get the files from server. None of them worked. Is the issue related with NETWORK SERVICE?

Thanks for your help.

  • Check the permissions on the files. It is possible to grant just write and list permissions on a folder. The result is that you can create files in the folder and you can see the created files, but you can't read them back.

  • Thanks, John. I solved this issue at last. It takes a whole day to define the problem :(.

    The issue is caused by the network. The distance between server and client is too long. The packages sent from server can not arrive the client succeesully. After I add a new swtich, it works normarlly.
