The following WILL sound silly, but it has an advantage to it, so kindly bear with me.
I have a Windows 98 machine called Main, with a share on it simply called "shared".
Whenever I chose to map \\Main\shared as a network drive (N: to be exact) on a different machine, it works like a charm. But If I try to do this ON the "Main" machine (the Windows 98 machine), I get an error (see below).
The purpose of this is I would like Anyone on ANY machine in a locla network to assume N: points to \\Main\shared regardless of which machine they are using. This has the obvious advantage for the less tech-savvy since nothing changes as far as how they think of drives. The following image is a screen shot of the message I get when i try to map \\Main\shared as N: on "Main".
Is there a way around this?
Thanx for taking the time to read this
