You need to use the unc name of the server and not the ip. Then just enter
your un/pw when prompted and you should be good to go. I'm running my ppc
in a domain network and I can access shares without a problem but I have to
use the unc name. Resco explorer has a nice netwroking features where you
can map shares. I have a dfs setup and on my ppc I have it mapped with the
same drive letter as the desktops uses. www.resco-net.com
