    '\\view is not accessible' for all but first Windows Terminal
    Services user
    
    APAR description:
    
    When attempting to access \\view from Microsoft Windows Explorer
    on a Windows Terminal Services system, such as Windows 2003 or
    Windows 2008, the following error is seen:
    
    -----
    \\view is not accessible. You might not have permission to use
    this network resource.
    -----
    
    This occurs when two or more users have attempted to access
    \\view on the same system.  Only the first user is successful;
    all subsequent users will fail.
    
    Additionally, 'My Network Places ?  Entire Network ? ClearCase
    Dynamic Views ? All Views' will fail in the same manner.
    
    This behavior has been observed in IBM Rational ClearCase 7.0
    and 7.1.
    
    
    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    
    1. From a Remote Desktop, login to a Windows 2003 system as a
    standard user.
    
    2. Using Windows Explorer, access \\view (successful).
    
    3. From a Remote Desktop, login to a Windows 2003 system as a
    second standard user.
    
    4. Using Windows Explorer, access \\view.  The error '\\view is
    not accessible' will be thrown.
    
    
    Workaround:
    
    Access views from M:\ or \\view\viewname
