ElGuapo ElGuapo Starting to like KiXtart Registered: 2002-06-19 Posts: 100	Has anyone heard of any problems with drive mappings not working correctly for Windows XP clients under Kix 3.62 in a Windows 2000 Native Domain? Win9x, W2k and Thin clients work fine. But Sometimes, not always though, Windows XP clients will not map their drives. MS tends to think this is a KiXtart problem.

Wait a couple of minutes for the net to init and it's fine. There's a policy to force it to wait for the net.

I have been witnessing extremely s_l_o_w drive mappings on WinXP Pro clients mapping to NetWare shares. From what I can gather so far, this is supposed to be fixed in XP SP1. _________________________ We all live in a Yellow Subroutine...
