RE: ifs mapped drive issue -- MIDRANGE-L

Also, mapped drives do not like mixed case passwords.

You can save yourself a lot of trial and error by selecting "Connect using different credentials". Then use .\username to avoid it trying to use the local domain name with the User ID. Also, if your password is a mix of letters and numbers, enter the letters in upper case. You already seem to be aware of checking to see if the profile is disabled, which can happen after even one bad attempt.

Subject: ifs mapped drive issue

I am testing the use of mapped drives to our IFS.

I have set up a shortcut on a Virtual Desktop.

If my network id and ibm I password are the same, I have no issues, If my network id and ibm I ID are different, I have no issues.

However if my network id and my ibm I password are not the same I cannot get connected.

I get a 'Windows Security' prompt to enter user id and password but receive 'Network password is not correct' After a couple attempts at this my Netserver userid becomes disabled.

If I try to use the network password I get 'Access is denied'.

Any idea what might be going on here.

I've done some searching and found some references to the issue, but no resolutions.

THanks
