MW>  Tonight I made a mistake when altering the CONFIG.SYS file on my file serve

MW>  Anyone that have any idea of how to get access to my partition again.

Are you sure the "Access denied" message is because of local security?
It might be giving you that message because the file system wasn't closed
properly ( it's not closed when the computer locks up ).  Why don't you
try booting off a floppy and doing a chkdsk c: /f:3?
