Hey all,

I'm trying to setup a server so that my users all have a home folder that is mapped by using the following line in a script:

net use K: \\servername\private\%username%

BUT, I keep getting an "error 50" error message (can't be done from your computer). We're using Win95 at this time (moving to Win2k next year if my budget remains intact) and I was wondering if that could be part of the problem? I can go to Network Neighborhood and navigate to the folder, and I can access the test file in it, but I can't map it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe Brouillette

 
net use h: /home thats what we use. The share folder needs to be shared as users.
 
win95 cannot map further than 2 steps down a directory tree. so, \\server\share is fine, but, \\server\share\username would not be recognized as a valid path.
 
Thanks guys.
