I had this happen a while back, ended up rebooting the file server and the problem was resolved. Hasn't happened since. Would love to know what was going on...

Hi Since Friday afternoon I have been having some people report that they can not open their PST files. All PST files are stored in users home drives on the Network. When trying to open the file from within Outlook they are told that they do not have permission to open the file. However they have full read and write access to the file. I reapplied permissions just in case. If I copy the PST locally then the file can be opened. If I copy the file back to the Network drive the error message changes to, "Outlook can not open this file" I know that Microsoft does not support PST's on a Network drive but we have worked this way for many years and I know that lots of other people do as well. Anyone any idea what may be happening here? It's affecting about 10% of our users at the moment and as I said earlier started happening on Friday afternoon. The clients are running a mixture of Office 2003 and Office 2007. We use Exchange server 2003. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
