Hi Mr Wolf
Thanks for your input. I've been through those kb's you supplied and none
seem relevant unfortunately. In the interim I've excluded the following
directories from being scanned by Trend Officescan:
d:\dfs
s:\shareddirectory (this is the dir where all the shares are)
You mention upgrading to SP2, I've been through the list of fixes SP2 is
supposed to resolve and kb898900 is the only fix related to dfs there is.
Does not seem to be related.
Also did I mention, this problem is intermittent.
Any more ideas?

.We have intermittent issues with users mapping a drive to a dfs share. Drive
mappings happen through a login script. Drive mappings to other servers work
fine.
Symptoms:
1.A "system error 3 has occurred" error appears when running the login
script or trying to map the drive manually through DOS using net use n:
\\domain\share\folder
2.When trying to map through explorer, a system error occurs.
3.Yet when you browse to the share from run you can view the contents and
only then are you able to map the drive to \\domain\share\folder
The above happens irrespective of whether just the domain name is used or
the FQDN is used.
Client workstations having the problem are Windows Xp pc's. DC's are Windows
2003 Sp1, along with file servers hosting the data.
Anyone had or have the same issue with a solution?
Cheers
You may want to upgrade to Server 2003 SP2 some time soon. See if any
of the info in these KBs helps:
