Greetings all,

I'm have a few problems with drive mapping's. I got the Samba CV's code
from a couple of weeks ago (3 I think) running on a Sparc Ultra-1 (2.5.1)
set up as a PDC and 2.0.4b on all my other Sparcs. Domain logins are
working fine, the problem arises when my login script runs.

The script just maps a few network drives:

> NET USE G: \\EUROPA\HOME
> NET USE H: \\GANYMEDE\HOME
> NET USE I: \\CARME\HOME
> NET USE J: \\SATURN\LOCAL-PC
> NET USE K: \\SATURN\HOME
> NET USE L: \\AMALTHEA\HOME
> NET USE M: \\ARIEL\HOME
> NET USE N: \\TETHYS\HOME
> NET USE O: \\OBERON\HOME

The mappings are running extremely slowly and at least one of mappings
(not always the same one!) will be rejected because the password has
failed to authenticate the user, see below:

If I then try to re-map the drive in explorer it wil be OK, any idea's?

Cheers

Alex.
