Hi,

-Drive mappings are Lan mappings.
-clients are looking at the DNS on the SBS Server.

Further investigation give me the following extra information.

A mapping from Win98 to linux worked fine.
A mapping from XP to only the Windows SBS server worked fine.

XP removed from domain xyz and placed in workgroup xyz, mappings working oke!!!

Any suggestions,

Regards Rob
