Hello, following information may be needfull:
we have a clustered Filerserver (Windows 2003 EE SP1)
Windows XP SP2 Workstations
Windows 2003 SP1 (Domaincontroller)
The logonscript runs under Kixtart 2001 4.22


A few of my workstations have the problem the drives are mapped but without
a name (in the explorer):
Usual it looks like that:
'Sharename on "Servername" (G:)'

on the Problem-Workstation the User see's following:
'Networkdrive (G:)'

There are NO entries in the system oder applikation log

Any idea?

My thoughts go to:
Name resolution problems
Clusterserver problems
Some kind of networkdriver problems

Since you do not know how to cross post, or how to spell, I suspect yu are

Well thanks pop,

i guess i described it a bit to diffcult.
Beside im not used to post in the english language (im sorry pop if it
offended you)

Imagine following:
You open your Explorer and you see the mapped drives.
Not as you are used to: Sharename on Servername (Driveletter:)
You see: Networkdrive (Driveletter)
So you cant see in which share on which server you are.

The User can access the drives without problem.
