RE: Mapping Network drives

Thomas, please don't share the root directory. You'll have to recover your entire system when it gets nailed by malware. And yes, it's when not if.

Subject: Re: Mapping Network drives

In File Explorer on PC, the error is "Windows cannot access \\192.168.0.5\root".
When Diagnose button is clicked the Troubleshooter results say:
"192.168.0.5" exists but Windows can't find "root".

The Net Server servers are running, no users are disabled from them, and both users attempt to map to root.

Best Regards,

Dear Thomas ,

Could you please advise the error being received by the first user.
Net Server is available on the machine to which the first user is not
able to map a drive. Did the second user map the same or different
directory on IBMi ? Did you check if his NetServer profile is disabled ?

Regards
Rameez

Hi,

Where should I look for differences in setup between two servers on
the same network, but only one of them can be mapped to a network drive?
Even stranger, another user can map a drive to the server that the
first can not?
