RE: Problem mapping a drive

We had a similar problem a month ago...  And I tried re-enrolling and
re-enabled their profile, under the netservice in ops nav.. Our problem was:
The user had a password that started with a number.  Once we changed that,
it worked fine..  I'm still not sure how they created a password that
started with a number, I thought the OS prevented it...

But oh well..

I believe we have asked them to verify this, but we have tried so many
things I am no positive. I will have them check this

Thanks

What we have found, much to our dismay, is that the password for windows
must match the password for the iSeries.

We have many customers that will assist with mapping their drives, but we
have encountered one customer that we cannot get a drive mapped on their
system 

 

They are running Windows XP OS400 V5R2

 

When mapping a drive to a directory in the IFS the users enter their iSeries
User Id and Password

The screen re-appears and prompts for User Name and password.

 

We have done a CHGUSRPRF to make sure the User profile is not disabled

We have tried several different User profiles including QSECOFR

We have checked the authorities on the IFS root (temporarily set *PUBLIC
Data Authority = *RWX Object Authority= *ALL) not other Users

We have checked the authorities on the directory in the IFS root
(temporarily set *PUBLIC Data Authority = *RWX Object Authority= *ALL) not
other Users

 

We have stopped NetServer and restarted NetServer then check messages in
QSYSOPR to verify the NetServer Name was correct

We have attempted to map using the iSeries IP Address, System Name (with and
without leading Q), NetServer Name 

 

Am I missing something, ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated

 

John
