I'm new to open plan and really don't know anything about it.
I'm a Active Directory Adim, Systems admin.
I've inherited this mess of Server Migration, which should have taken place years before I got here.
All I have are these instructions below as to how to migrate.
Migrating OpenPlantoaNewServer
1) InstallOpenPlanonthenewserverusingtheMulti-User(Server)option.Serialnumbersand

I have some questions.
For the most part I’ve done this except step 1, when we had support from Deltek, I was told did not have to do this.
The problems I have are most user can connect via \\ip [1] address\ sharename.
But a couple get windows error message “you may not have permissions to use this network resource , contact administrator”
I’ve checked user accounts the whole bit, still no change, even checked registry settings
But the big issues is the person that uses the Open Plan Professional, when she goes in Open Plan Explorer, she opens file then tries to do save as, it goes through up to a point, says saving CST file: gets to 12250 Records written, then hangs,
Any help would be appreciated .
Thanks
