    Hi Jacksen

    Thanks for the reply. A few questions:

     

    1. Are you running your own domain and did you have to set additional permissions at the domain level for this to work?
    2. Is the network drive mounted or are you pointing it at "\\network-drive\file-store"
    3. Have you left the MYOB server running all the services as the local system user or did you change these?

    If you have any other tips, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

      Apologies, I think I've misunderstood your current configuration & desired outcome.  SQL and DM are on a seperate machine to our workstations/Terminal server. So DM is a local drive within the SQL server, but on the network for our workstations.

       

      This might give some insight...

      Spoiler
      The File Store Folder Location must be a local drive, not a mapped drive

       

      I'll leave this for someone more experienced.

        Thanks Jacksen.  Yes, it seems our implementations are different. Re the text you have in the spoiler window - can where did you get that? I note that the link you provided doesn't say the same specific text. I note it does say the "deploy" folder must be a local folder and I do comply with that requirement. Thank you.
