For sons-clearcase Tools is a folder under it's local E drive and has 
Full Control set for Everybody (that's it - perhaps not that secure but 
that's what it is).

For sons-cc Tools is a folder under it's local C drive and has Read & 
Execute, List Folder Contents and Read set for Everybody (and that's it).

As for Share Permissions both machines are set to Full Control for 
Everybody.

I can try opening up permissions to Full Control for Everybody on 
sons-cc but I don't think it will do anything and I don't particularly 
like being that open (on either machine).

Another interesting thing is that on sons-clearcase the Owner is ccadmin 
(the user in question) whereas on sons-cc the Owner is Administrators.

I've changed sons-cc C:\Tools to match sons-clearcase's settings. We'll 
see what happens. Now to devise a way to test this again...

The user is indeed the same and in the same domain. The domain spans the 
two sites.
