Hi,
I'm setting up Windows 98/Me clients (using laptops) to log onto an NT server (SBS 4.5) via dial-up networking on the client end and connecting to server using RAS.
I have successfully got a connection and also connected to Exchange server to send/receive e-mail, etc.
All I cannot do is access the network drives. The users trying to log on already have network connections on their desktop PCs which work perfectly, the problem is just with the dial-in access.
Our IT support company initially said it was because NETBUI wasn't installed, so I did this - no difference. Another said that I may need to type the server name/path for the network drives in Start/Run dialog box to get to them - no difference.
I'm there there must be something really obvious I need to do to access the drives, because everything else is working.
Please can you assist?
Regards,
Jay/UK
