Re: Mapped drive to the IFS - Windows 7

[Michael Ryan <michaelrtr@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a terrible time accessing the IFS from my Win 7 PC. One thing
that I've found that helps (especially when it just seems to stop with
long lists) is to refresh. It appears that the connections just
'stops', and a refresh makes it remember to keep working.

I had a number of issues, which I can't recall now, setting up the drive.  However now I have it prompt me for my login when I try to access it.  The pain is the 25 seconds I have to wait for it to give me the sign-on dialog box.  Oh, and if I click "Remember my credentials," the next time I reboot my computer, it appears to try to log onto the drive with my network logon (that's my guess, since if it really remembered my credentials shouldn't it successfully log on?)
