ISSUE/PROBLEM
Double Drive Mappings
If you are using NetWare Lite on the same network with Native NetWare
(NetWare v3.11 or v2.2) you may run across the situation where NetWare
Lite's Net utility reports a single drive letter mapped to two different
directories simultaneously (such as two F: drives). These "double drive
mappings" will occur in the following scenario:
Map a drive letter with NetWare Lite (NET MAP F: CDRIVE SERVER1).
Log in to a NetWare v3.11 or v2.2 server. If your server's system
login script has a drive mapping that uses the same drive letter
(F:) as the pervious NetWare Lite mapping it will override the
mapping without giving the usual NetWare warning "drive already in
use by local drive."
Note: You will get the warning if you map from the command line.
If you then return to NetWare Lite's Net utility and select drive
mappings, you will see that the F: drive appears as a NetWare Lite
drive mapping and as a Native NetWare Mapping.
When this situation occurs, the mapping to Native NetWare will be
the active mapping. NetWare Lite will flag its own mapping inactive
and is, therefore, inaccessible to the user. The NetWare Lite
mapping can not be deleted as long as it is inactive. To make the
NetWare Lite mapping active, delete the Native NetWare mapping.
