All,

We have recently gone to a Windows Domain Controller and are now having problems with PC's losing their connection to a shared network drive which resides on the iSeries. If I disconnect and try to reconnect to the share, sometime it prompts for a password even though this share is setup to use a guest account with no password required. Some PC's won't connect at all anymore. Does anyone know if changing the current domain name in the NetServer configuration to match the new Windows domain name may help? I don't want to just try it and cause bigger problems because I am not sure what the purpose is of the domain name on the iSeries configuration.

TIA.

Jon
