I've noticed a red X on drive mappings in My Computer on my Windows 95 machines. Every time, I'm able to open the drive and access the files. What does the red X mean? I have gotten a sharing violation on a batch file that runs on the drive at night.

Thanks,

Jimmy

Sounds like you have rights/permissions issue on the batch file. Check the file/foldrer permissions and see if you have the correct rights. As for the red X it means that you are not connected or mapped to a drive or a folder.
It's possible once you fix the rights/permissions issue then the red x will go away
Good Luck

Under Network Neighborhood -> Properties -> Client For Microsoft Networks -> Properties, check to see whether "Quick logon" is checked. If it is, change it to "Logon and restore network connections".
