Please I need some help!!!
When I try to access a Sharepoint server from a Windows 2000 client to copy some files to this folder(adsales) thru \\servername\sites\adsales it tells me that the "network name cannot be found". If I put only \\servername it can open it.
When I do that from a XP or 2003 I don't have any problems opening \\servername\sites\adsales it is only from WIN 2000
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you so much!!!!
 
Hello,

When you connect to a SharePoint Library or folder, webfolders are being used, perhaps it is something not working with that on your win 2000 client.

I know that earlier there was a separate download for webfolders and windows 2000 and also seen an article that you if you get the latest Internet Explorer you should get it installed.

Cheers,
Thomas
