|Hello Ray,
|
|Thank you for your post and also thanks to Timmy for his input.
|
|Actually, in the pre-Windows 2000 systems, we cannot map to the down-level
|subfolders in a certain shared folder. In other words, on Windows NT
|systems we cannot map a drive letter to a remote folder unless the folder
|is directly shared. It is a by-design feature.
|
|To resolve this issue, you may individually share each folder if necessary
|or only map the drive letter to the shared folder (the parent folder).
|Alternatively, the problem will be resolved after upgrading to Windows
2000
|or later.
|
|I hope this helps. Thanks and have a great day!
|
