Problems mapping the QDLS folder to Windows

So it appears our ERP package is limiting us to using the QDLS directory(GRRRR). One of our users has an option where they can upload data from QDLS through this menu option to the iSeries. Just to make sure I'm not being really stupid and skipping a step here:


* I simply open up Windows Explorer, and in the path I put two backwards slashes, followed by our system name, followed by a single backward slash, followed by "QDLS".
* I immediately get an error saying Windows can't access that path.
* I've verified that my passwords are the same for Windows and the iSeries, and that they both are completely uppercase, with letters, a number, and a special character in the allowed set of special characters.

I've also tried using the "map a drive" function in Windows and that's where I get the "SMB2 versus SMB1" error message.

Am I a knucklehead and I've missed a totally obvious step?
