SYMPTOMS
========
When you attempt to modify the NTFS permissions on a file that you have copied
to a network share that is located on a cluster server as a File Share resource,
the following error messages may be displayed:
Object Picker cannot open because it cannot determine whether
<Network Name Resource> is joined to a domain.
Unable to display the user selection dialog.
Access is denied.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if all of the following conditions exist:
- SQL 7.0 is installed on the cluster server and was configured as a Cluster
resource in an active/passive configuration by using the SQL Failover Wizard.
- The file share you are connecting to is hosted by a cluster server as a File
Share resource.
- The file share source is located on the same hard disk as SQL 7.0 on the
cluster server, and is located in the same resource group as SQL 7.0.
- You are attempting to modify NTFS permissions on a file that is located on
the cluster server by using a user account that does not have administrator
privileges on the cluster server.
RESOLUTION
==========
To prevent this behavior from occurring, create the File Share resource in a
different cluster resource group, and on a different hard disk than the hard
disk on which SQL 7.0 is installed.
