ISSUE/PROBLEM
Setting LASTDRIVE
LASTDRIVE is a DOS command which is executed at boot time from
the CONFIG.SYS file. The NetWare Lite NET utility uses LASTDRIVE
to identify valid drives and provide compatibilty with other
NetWare products. The installation programs default value of
LASTDRIVE=M: should work for most situations. If you wish to use
a value other than M: be aware that LASTDRIVE should be set to G:
or greater for NET to run. LASTDRIVE is set by including a
command such as "LASTDRIVE=G:" in CONFIG.SYS. If you attempt to
run NET with LASTDRIVE set lower than G:, or not set, you will
have to increase the value of LASTDRIVE and reboot before any NET
command can be executed.
When LASTDRIVE is set to F: network directories can be mapped to
any drive letter up to LASTDRIVE (except C: if SERVER is loaded).
However, F: must be mapped in order to map D: or E:. If the
situation occurs where D: or E: is mapped and F: is not mapped,
the LASTDRIVE error message will result upon execution of the
next NET command. To avoid this problem set LASTDRIVE to G: or
greater.
