Hi folks,

I've started puttting out WinXP boxes on my network - not through choice, however I've got a problem with them.

If I have mapped network drives onto another M$ box everything is fine.

If I have mapped network drives onto a Samba service (RH7.3+errata) the drives don't connect, and show in 'My Computer' but with red 'X' agains them. Double clicking on them then re-connects, but sometimes a password is requested first.

Although I think it's a WinXP problem, I was wondering if any Samba users out there know how to fix it.

I noticed you aven't gotten a reply on this yet.


My personal experience is that Windows XP PROFESSIONAL (you don't mention which on you are using) does this SOMETIMES, not all the time. (The red X thing I mean). However I've never been asked to re-verify my password when clicking on them, they just re-connect.

I've always just put it down to 'one of those Gates things'.

Regards,
Ed.
