• How to map a network drive, such as a local drive

  I have a program (Samsung Link) that can only detect the local drives to share with my TV. I have a network drive I want to share with her, but it does not detect it (I obviously mapped it and it is visible in Windows Explorer on my Windows 7 Pro 64 bit PC).

  How can I map the drive so that it will be detected as a local drive?

  How can I map the drive so that it will be detected as a local drive?

  Depends on intelligence and enforcement of Samsung Link needs...
   
  Might be able to create a symbolic link to a local folder (unused) on a local computer and it MIGHT (* could *) can fool the Samsung app.

  symbolic link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753194.aspx

  so...

  Map a network share directory, you can use this command:

  net use \\Server\ShareName

  


  Then... If you want to access the network share through a location on your C: drive, you'll want to set up a symbolic link:

  mklink /d  C:\Folder\NewShareName \\Server\ShareName 
  

  Now, when you browse to C:\Folder\NewShareName, you'll see the content of \\Server\ShareName...
   
  Perhaps IF you could point to C:\Folder\NewShareName Samsung
  (* NewShareName shouldn't exist in C:\Folder before running the command "mklink".)

• Mapping a network drive on a virtual private network

  Windows 7 64 - bit, updated.  I want to connect to our office (Small Business Server 2003) through the VPN server.  I can connect via VPN, but lately, when I try to map the network drive, I wonder of logon credentials.  A month earlier and earlier, I could log on without any problem.  No change in the hardware or software except Windows Update.  Office of the administrator COMPUTER says it's a problem of Port 47.  I went so far as to turn off the Windows Firewall, incoming & outgoing.  No relief.  I can connect using Windows XP without there be invited for the opening of the session.

• Error 0x800704b3 when you try to map a network drive

  Hello

  I have the following error message when you try to map a network drive in my home network:
  "\\iomegahmd cannot be reached" and the error code is 0x800704b3.

  I already looked in the services, and my strong assumption is that the problem is that 'TCP/IP NetBIOS Assistance' service is not statrted and it is disabled. When I try to start it, there is an error message:
  "The system could not find the specified path".

  I also checked the dependency of the 'TCP/IP NetBIOS Assistance' service components:
  Auxiliary function for Winsock driver
  NetBT
  TCP/IP protocol driver
  NetIO-legacy-TDI Support driver
  in the Device Manager is running, but they are all running. Startup is set to 'system '.

  Under the properties of version 4 of TCP/IP Internet of the wireless device, under Advanced-> WINS I ve put enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP, but it helps t is not either.

  What else could try, so that I can map network drives?

  I should also mention, that the problem persists for a few weeks. Before, it was working properly. In addition, on other computers on my network I don't have access to the same network drive problem.

  Thanks in advance,
  Tithe

  > I should also mention that the problem persists for a few weeks. Before, it was working properly.

  It of difficult to say what's wrong in your case. My first idea is: put installation beginning point of time before this error appeared.

  I recommend also to disable all security software and check if you experience the same problem.
  If you still experience the problem, then follow the link to fix the damaged user profile.

• System error 50 occurred... during the mapping of network drive with a batch file.

  I have several computers on a home network with WiFi and Ethernet access to a NAS network.

  Using a batch file, card readers network at startup, etc.
  A for (I have 4) computers fails to map the network drive.  All other computers work fine with the same batch file.
  Specifically, when the following command has been executed in the batch file:
  NET use * /d /y
  The computer responded with:
  50 system error has occurred.
  The request is not supported.
  When the batch continues running and map network drives, each command mapping «net use z:...» ' produces the following:
  53 system error has occurred.
  The network path was not found.
  This particular computer in question is a laptop and all other software and functionality seems to work very well.
  It looks like a problem with Windows, but after some research, I found that many variations in Windows can produce the same above error codes.
  Help!

  Hi Roger,

  Have you been able to solve the problem?

  System Error Codes are very broad. Each of them can occur in one of hundreds of locations in the system. As a result, the descriptions of these codes cannot be very precise.

  Please visit the following link to learn more about the system error 50:

  I have a WRVS4400N router and have connected through the VPN Client quick 1.3.0.3 my laptop running XP.  I can ping any IP on my network I can access HTTP addresses and distance desktop (VNC), but I cannot map a network drive.

• A computer on Win7 Home premium able to map a network drive on a computer in a different domain?

  A computer on Win7 Home premium able to map a network drive on a computer in a different domain? Or is this a limitation of the home premium? In addition, the computer I have tries to map running Win7 ultimate.

  If I am not mistaken (I reserve that right!), Home Premium cannot be joined to a domain and the OP also indicates to gain access to resources in a different domain. Thus, according to trusts in place or VPN connections, it could be a challenge. Where did the idea of using something easy of access/sharing of resources.

  Otherwise, you need to set the resources to allow access of the anon/no authenticated user.

• I can map a network drive by using the appropriate credentials, but access is denied (by default local account for navigation)

  I have a laptop running XP SP3.  If I connect locally to the laptop and you try to map a network from a server drive on my network, it invites me for a username and password that I offer and the player must then be mapped.  The problem is that when I click on the new player, I get an access denied message.  It tries to connect to the share with my local account that has no access privileges.  Previously it tempt me a username and password, but apparently, I changed some security settings and it doesn't do this more.

  The same thing happens if I use the command net use.  I can map the drive by providing an appropriate user name and password, but I can't browse it in windows Explorer.  I really want to understand the context that controls if you get a prompt when you access a resource on the network.  I think that it is related to the setting of security strategy for network access: sharing and security for local accounts.  I played a bit with it, but in vain.

  I realize that I could probably add an account with the same username / password for my local account on the server and give access to my file shared.  I don't want to do that.  I have several users who share the laptop and access the local account access (I realize this is not ideal, but it is inevitable at the present time).  I don't want to have access to this network share.

  Can someone help me get my login prompt?  I searched on google for the last 2 days trying all kinds of suggested solutions, but I couldn't find one that works.

  Too bad... I was hoping that was the problem.  But at least it now asks you a name of user and password :-)

  Apart from that, you could look to make sure that NetBios over TCP (NetBT) is enabled on the client.  Deactivation of this force a direct hosting of SMB which sometimes has problems.

  "Hosting of SMB over TCP/IP direct".
  <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/204279 >

  Your latest comments seem to point to a followed initial connection or bad connect more or maybe you is not authenticated as expected.  A few quick tests, I did showed that if you connect using TCP/IP address instead of the computer name and specify everything, including the scope of user name online net "use", it reduces the network traffic needed to establish a connection.  As a test on a client, from a command prompt, try a syntax such as:

  NET use * \\192.168.1.10\share /user:192.168.1.10\username password

  Where "192.168.1.10" is the IP address of the server, 'share' is the name of the action that you want to connect to and "username" is the local user on the server to which you authenticate you.  If you use domain identification information, substutite for "192.168.1.10" domain name in the "/ user:" part.  If you log to a local account server from a name of user and password graphic prompt, try to including the name of the computer and the user name in the user name as in Nom_ordinateur\Nom_utilisateur area.  If it does not, unless there is really something wrong with the access permissions, I'm out of ideas.

  Good luck
