Problem with XP Pro and Mapped Network Drives

by j2per . Updated 19 years, 7 months ago

I have several businesses that I have configured on a “workgroup” network. I have then mapped those systems to a network drive letter on the server – for this example let use “M” as the mapped drive letter. These systems then use a universal integrator that connects them to this server to access the data.

The problem is that when the units are turned on at the beginning of the day, the “M” drive is not “connected” – it is there, but not available. So, my integrator software will not start.

I have contacted several network administrators, Microsoft, DELL and Linksys and no one has an answer on how I can get the network drive letter to initialize at startup every time!

Can anyone help? Thanks

Jeffrey
