Unable to Map drive from windows 95 client to win 2000 server!!!!

[kemit]

Hi

Help!!!

Having problem mapping a drive from my windows 95 client pc to windows 2000 server.

The syntax below works fine on window 2000 but NOT 95.
net use * \\servername\C$ /USER:localadmin
The above allows me to logon with a local account "localadmin" on server.
Why does this not work on a win 95 pc?

Thanks in Advance

Authentication works different with win95 then win2000. Are you using a domain or simpy peer-to-peer?
Make sure you are logged on with some username on the win95 machine and also make sure there's an account corresponding with the name you are logged in at it. Right now you're probably trying with an anonymous login to connect to a win2k computer and that simply doesn't work.

Hope this helps.
Good luck!
