RE: Connecting to an IFS share with Windows XP

You might try the CWBPING command in WinDoze to verify your connection.
To do this, go to the command prompt and enter CWBPING <your systemname>
/V. You can also accomplish this by right clicking your system name
connection in Navigator and selecting Verify Connection.

You can also try this link: Troubleshooting iSeries NetServer

Hi Mike,

I have mixed case on the XP, and have keyed my password in mixed case on
the
i. I have my 5250 set to bypass the signon using windows userid and
password, and it auto signs me on every time without fail, so the
passwords
do match, it is just opening a network share from the i/OS that the
authentication fails.

Do you have a mixed case Windows password and are set for all

passwords on the iSeries? I think this can cause problems with Windows

when

it sends the mixed case password that does not match. And I think (I

can't

confirm this) that windows tries more than one time to send the

password

when it fails and you can get disabled with a single click

I think the QZLSFILE job comes up once there is a share; the

QZLSSERVER (?)

job may have a job log that indicates if there is an authentication

issue.

It's also worth checking the history log to see if you can get a bead

on

any
others jobs initiated at the same time.

How do you know the passwords are the same - what happens if you enter

the

user/password combination that is failing manually ? Have you consider
changing the password at both ends (i.e. windows and iSeries) to be

sure

they are the same ? You may need to reboot after changing the windows
password to force it to try and make the connection with the new

password

instead of some old cached copy.

I find these problems difficult to provide advice for...

Regards
Evan Harris

Thanks for the reminders - I had check the first 3 before sending my
message. Check them again;

Netserver - no users disabled
Permissions - I am the owner
Share permissions - read/right - no max users
No job QZLSFILE listed in WRKACTJOB
