Re: QNTC and Windows 7 shares (V5R4)

Brad --

We've been having intermittent issues with QNTC.  We have some apps 
that write files to Windows servers through QNTC directly, and from 
time-to-time they won't.  Write, that is.

As you mentioned, make absolutely, positively certain that you're 
using the same profile and password on both the iSeries and the 
Server.  Also make sure that the password is the same case on both 
systems-- from what I've heard, if you change your iSeries password 
using the Windows pop-up box you can violate the password rules on 
the iSeries.  Change the password from a green-screen, then change it 
on the Server.

Also, make sure the profile on the network side really, truly is 
enabled and active!   (:

Another thing we've been doing is manually creating a QNTC link-- 
MKDIR DIR('/QNTC/servername').  Any QNTC link you create manually 
disappears at IPL time,  so we attempt to re-create the link after 
each IPL and every 3 hours (just to make sure).
