I can map a drive from a Win98 machine at home to an NT server at my office over an ISDN connection. I have the necessary permissions for this directory. The server and this client machine both connect to the internet via ISDN. I am trying to copy about 25 meg of data in one directory from the server to the home machine. After approx. 4 megs worth of files, this message appears: ‘The specified network resource or device is no longer available ‘
I can successfully copy this directory to a machine running NT Workstation in my other office which happens to be connected to the internet with fiber. Furthermore, the Win98 machine (home, ISDN) can successfully copy the directory from the NT Workstation unit (work, fiber). What is going on here, do I have connectivity problems or are there inherent weaknesses for this procedure in Windows 98? Keep in mind the server connects via ISDN and this link seems to work when bringing the data to my other office. Are there some registry settings to “tweak” in Windows 98
