I have a 5 machine network, all with 2000 Server. Three
of the machines have SP2. Two of the machines have SP4.
They are all connected using an USR WAP 2450 and each
have USR Wireless Adapters 2410. The two with SP4 will
not reconnect any mapped network drives. They just
display the "Restoring Network Connections" dialog and
then give "An error occurred while reconnecting..." Once
you are at the desktop, you can start up explorer and see
any mapped drives with a red X signifying that they are
not connected. However, if you click on any mapped
drive, it will immediately show you the contents of that
drive. One other thing -- when the system tray first
appears, you can see the network connection icon for the
USR adapter with an X through it but quickly after, it
disappears, signifying that it is now connected to the
network. Now the question -- can anyone tell me why the
ones with SP2 have no problems recognizing the mapped
drives but the ones with SP4 don't? It seems as if the
drivers for the wireless adapters are not getting loaded
before the operating system checks for mapped drives.
Any insight would be appreciated.
Regards,
Russ
