[luau] Map network drive in 2000

maybe you should post your samba configuration file (smb.conf).  mine looks
something like this (short version):

*** start ***

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from localhost (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2003/05/24 23:49:34

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = WORKGROUP
        netbios name = LINUX
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        map to guest = Bad User
        log level = 1
        syslog = 0
        time server = Yes
        unix extensions = Yes
        socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
        printcap name = CUPS
        os level = 2
        hosts allow = 10.10.10.0/24
        printing = cups
        veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        valid users = %S
        read only = No
        create mask = 0640
        directory mask = 0750
        browseable = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/tmp
        create mask = 0600
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No

[print$]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
        write list = @ntadmin root
        force group = ntadmin
        create mask = 0664
        directory mask = 0775

[MP3s]
        comment = My MP3 Collection
        path = /mp3
        guest ok = Yes

*** END ***

The Samba help files are great.  Follow their directions and it should work
easily.  One thing to note, you have to add a samba user/password that
matches the same user/password on the W2K box (you can use the
client/password management page of SWAT) that wants to map the
drive/share...unless you're using some other security option (other than
USER).

Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting a Win 2000 desktop to map a network drive
(Linux share). I can do it in Win 98SE and Win NT. What's different in Win
2000?
