- Hi there all fellow OS/2 users,
-
- We have a machine here with the Win 3.1 Beta installed on it, and are
- experiencing a bit of a glitch. Basically, we go through loading all the
- drivers etc to connect to the Novell server, which all goes OK. We get a
- message saying that the connection to the server has been established OK
- as well. Now, the server's hard disk should be mounted as F:, but under
- DOS under OS/2 it is actually mounted as [: (yes, I do mean the square
- bracket :) !!!! We only discovered this after quite a bit of searching !!
- Although we can still use this to some extent, there seems to be a
- problem when logging onto the server, as we get a bunch of error
- messages about not being able to mount various directories, and not
- being able to locate the printer via capture. Also, we cannot get
- Microsoft mail to work. Anyone know how to get the drive letter back to
- normal (yes lastdrive is set to Z), or have similar experiences or
- otherwise under the GA+SPP ??? All information most gratefully received
- !

- Thanks,
-
