One of the physicists here is using a laptop with Windows XP. He logs into
the laptop at home to work and creates files. When he uses that laptop to
log into the domain at work, he does not have permission to see the files
that he created (it is in a directory directly off of c: not in the my
documents folder). I logged into the domain as administrator and tried to
add domain\user to the permissions, but it would only let me see the users
on the machine name, not on the domain. There must be an easy answer to
this that I am missing. These files are integral to the operation of the
lab, so I have temporarily given him administative priviledges on the
domain so that he can see the files. There must be a better way.
