Re: Mapping Network Drive from Vista Business to V5R1

Here's another one. This time I Googled "vista samba".

Click "Start -> Run." Then, type in the Run field: "secpol.msc." That
will bring you to Vista's security policy system. Once there, use "Go
to: Local Policies > Security Options" and then find "Network Security:
LAN Manager" authentication level. Once there, change the Setting from
"Send NTLMv2 response only" to "Send LM & NTLM -- use NTLMv2 session
security if negotiated."

Apparently by default Vista only supports NTLMv2.

Thanks for this Dan. Well worth a try but sadly it didn't make any
difference. Many thanks for taking an interest. Back to the drawing
board.

I just Googled "vista netbios" since this question has come up several

times. Found these instructions for enabling NetBios. As there is an
article, it must not be enabled by default.

To enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP on Windows Vista:

Click Start, and then click Network. (Or you can click Start, type
ncpa.cpl into the search box, and press ENTER).
Click on the Network and Sharing Center, and then click Manage Network

Connections.
Right click on the Local Area Connection or the connection you are
using.
Select the Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Click the Advanced
button under the General tab.
Click the WINS tab.
Click the Enable NetBIOS Over TCP/IP button.
Click Ok.

If NetBios isn't enabled, you aren't going to be able to communicate
with earlier versions of OS400 Netserver. Worth a try.

Subject: Mapping Network Drive from Vista Business to V5R1

I managed to get a PC with Vista Business to map a network drive to an

iSeries with V5R3 but not to V5R1. Another PC with XP Pro works fine
with both machines. There is nothing complex about the connections of

either and I am trying to connect locally at present, not remotely.

Is there anyone who has managed to map a drive from Vista to V5R1? If

so, please let me know the secret! I am aware that I am not the only
person with this problem.

Many thanks
