Re: Mapping a network drive

Thank you for the reply...

When the Win7 windows comes up it shows the DesktopName\UserName.
You are correct it must be changed to i5 HostName\UserName.

After I did that it didn't work. I found this document:
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/1ac66549a21402188625680b0002037e/6
c1e1e33e5a34e3d862570a700576b6a?OpenDocument&Highlight=2,Netserver,Windows
,Password

That says you need to:
click Start > Run, type secpol.msc, and press the Enter key. The policy is located under
Local Policies > Security Options and is labelled Network Security: LAN Manager
authentication level. Double-clicking on the setting will pop up a window with a drop-down
list of valid settings. Select the setting LM responses.

After that it worked.

Thanks,

Gary

You may need to specify the username in the form domain\username, using the
domain specified in the NetServer setup. There was a thread about that in
here not long ago.

I have a shared folder (it's been shared for years) on the ifs. It's /tmp.

I have another Win7 box that has a mapped drive mapped to it and it's
working fine.

I have a new Win7 box that I need to map to the same shared folder. I
went into
mapping drives, I selected the drive to map, I browsed the i5, I selected
the folder.
It's asking for a user and a password. For any valid user on the i5 with
the correct
password it says Access is denied.

If I go on the i5 and do a wrklnk , 9 to work with authority it shows:
*public *RWX
QSYS *RWX
NATALIE *RWX

One of the many users I have tried is Natalie.

What user does it want?

Thanks,
