RE: mapped drive in W2K Pro.

Title: RE: mapped drive in W2K Pro.

We have "Netserver" running and I "ADDED" our AS/400 to "My Network Places".  I just can't "map" a drive to it at the "Top" level.  I can map to a share under the "Top" level system.  I need it to work at the "Top" level.  Any ideas?  Thanks again.

I do it all the time.  You need to start the AS400's Netserver, so it
becomes a true Windows Networking file server.  After that, you should be
able to find the 400 in "My Network Places | Entire Network".
