Hello, I am new to Vista and we are trying to get a few brand new Vista Business machines up on our network for test purposes. But I can not get the machines to successfully map to out Netserver drive that is being served from a v5r1 box. I'm hoping it something simple in Vista I am missing, but after a day of searching and reading through many Vista networking issue solutions, and anything I can find on IBM's site nothing has helped yet. Here's some details on what I've done so far: There are 2000 prof and a 98 box on this network that have always and continue to access the Netshare without issue. I am administrator to the Vista boxes. I installed a new copy of iSeries Access v5r4 on the boxes. I can open a session with the As400 with no issues. I can open this session via both server name and IP address, and I can ping from the command prompt with success with both name and IP, so it appears DNS is working just fine. File sharing and Discovery is turned on on Vista machine. Network/Internet is working fine on the boxes. When I watch the Netstat on the AS/400 I can see a netbios connection opened from the PC to the AS400, and it closes a few seconds later. I have tried the "use a different username option" and that does not help either. The error I get from Vista is "The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred: An unexpected Network error occur ed" Any thoughts on what is hopefully something simple I have missed on these new machines? Thanks in advance. ____________________________________________________________________________________ No need to miss a message. Get email on-the-go with Yahoo! Mail for Mobile.
