Thanks Eric. Make user profile and password on System I identical to
the windows profile would be difficult to implement.

I've not spent a lot of time researching EIM yet. Will look into it.
Thanks.

Make the user profile and password on the System i identical to the
Windows profile. Or use EIM...

I would mention GUEST access for Netserver, but that's really dumb, so
don't consider that...

I've an application that will create a csv file in the IFS folder base
on user's request. Upon completion, it will send an email with a link
to the resulting csv file. The link would look something like below:
file://sysName/myfolder/ReqID000000000000038.csv

When user click on this link from outlook email, it will pop a window
saying "cannot find file '\\sysName\myfolder\ReqID000000000000038.csv'".
This error will only occur if user has not signon to the myFolder yet.
It works fine once user signon the this share folder. Is there a way to
get around this problem?

Thanks.
