Re: Windows drive mapping to IFS; DNS Nope, IP address Yes

WE HAVE A WINNER!

I *thought* I had tried this before, but I only tried it with one mapped
drive, not all 6 of the mapped drives I had. (Also, I remember that the
timing of this issue starting did *not* coincide with changing my password
on the i.) So, using your advice, I disconnected all 6 mapped drives
first, then reconnected them. For reference, when it came time to map the
drive on my Win7 client:
1) On the "Map Network Drive" dialog, I checked "Reconnect at logon" and
"Connect using different credentials". Click on Finish.
2) On the subsequent "Windows Security" dialog, I am prompted to Enter
Network Password. I click on "Use another account"; enter the user ID with
the domain, \\development.mycompany.com\myuserid, and enter my i
password. I also click on "Remember my credentials".

Thank you so much, Roy!

Hi Dan,

thius could happen when you connect a drive and specify "reconnect at
signon/login" and your credential have changed...
you could possibly have an unrestored connection stored in your windows
session/profile... have tried you to disconnect them all...
from a (windows/dos) command prompt run : "net use" and see the list of
unavailable connections.. if you find your host name for X: (or another
letter) then run "net use X: /DELETE" from the Command Prompt...
you could also disconnect the drive from windows file explorer...
