NSS6000: unable to map as a network drive in Win7pro

I have setup my NSS6000 through the web browser interface (setup RAID5, created a volume, created a share (using CIFS protocol), and created a couple usernames). Now I am trying to map my share as a network drive and it is not working.
I select Map a Network Drive in My Computer, select a drive letter, enter its ip address as "\\192.168.0.xxx" in the folder line, and check the boxes for "Reconnect at logon" and "Connect using different credentials"
After entering all this info, a logon screen appears asking me for a username and password. I enter the username and password for a username I created through the web interface. After a few seconds, the logon window reappears. I try my username/password again, this continues 3-4 times and then finally it says "Windows cannot access \\192.168.0.xxx"
I have gotten error codes of 0x80070035 (The network path was not found). Also, when I select "Diagnose" after getting the "Windows cannot access" popup box, it sometimes tells me "The device or resource (192.168.0.xxx) is not set up to accept connections on port "The File and printer sharing (SMB)"."
I can see the device in the Network window of My Computer (listed under "Other Devices" as NAS00xxxxxxxx). I can also continue to access it via the ip address through the web interface.
Some things I have tried:
entering the MAC address instead of the IP address (\\NAS00xxxxxxxx) as the folder
entering \\192.168.0.xxx\nas as the folder (nas is the name of the share I created)
entering my username as both "NAS00xxxxxxxx\username" and just as "username"
entering my adminstator login credentials for the web browser interface as the username/password, as opposed to a username I created within the web interface
Not checking the "Connect using different credentials" box
I can't believe this is so difficult. Can anyone help me solve this? Thanks

Thanks for the tips - here's what I did and the results
Created a new username on through the web interface; changed the hostname to "nasbox"; rebooted the NSS6000; rebooted the pc while the NSS was booting; logged on to the pc with a generic username (not admin or administrator)
tried again to map it as a network drive - specified \\192.168.0.xxx\nas as the folder name (again, "nas" is the name of the share I created on the device), selected the checkbox for "Connect using different credentials". Clicked finish, box for username/password pops up. I enter the new username/password I created - same result. No joy.

Error message when mapping to a network drive of a DFS share on Windows 7

Hi,
We are getting the following error when mapping to a network drive of a DFS share on Windows 7:
“The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred:
A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated."
In our case, the user logs on his workstation using his regular domain account, then maps to the network DFS share using the service account of an application.
There is a fix from Microsoft (MS KB968264). But this fix requires disabling the "Network access: Do not allow storage of credentials or .NET Passports for network authentication” property. This is against the Microsoft own best practices (Network access:
“Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication” should be set to
ENABLED), and is NOT acceptable for us for obvious security reasons.
Question: Does anyone know an alternative fix to this issue that does not introduce security risks?
Thank you in advance!

Again I have tried this, but in my program if I try to save to the a drive when no disk is inserted, the JOptionPane i want to display is not coming up.
the system prints out
java.io.FileNotFoundException: A:\image.jpg <The device is not ready>
If that makes any sense to you

Cannot map a domain network drive. Unknown anomaly

Dear Technet!
I have a very annoying problem. We a have a Win2008R2 domain. Many domain client desktops and laptops, and some "out of domain" laptops. The problem is connected to the last ones. Everything is fine to map a shared server folder, because everyone
has a domain access instead of the client is domain or out of domain PC. Of corse I have to set manual the out of domain PC's network drives.
BUT we bought a Fujitsu Lifebook P Series laptop with Windows 7 Professional (it is an out of domain client) and I confronted with an anomaly.
When I manualy want to map a network drive it not change the domain!
The steps:
-Right click at Computer-> Map network drive
-I selected the Letter and type the shared folder: \\server1\folder1
-NOW it is ask the authentication process BUT
Normaly when I type the username with domain mydomain\username it should change the PC's name to the domain name like: JoeysLaptop --to--> MyDomain
And the problem is here. It NOT changes, and I cannot map the drive, because it say cannot find this path. In every else W7Pro laptop its working fine, but this one. Internet connection working. Pings are working, DNS working.
I checked the firewall settings, the services, the sharing center (public and home&work) file and printersharing and the networkscan is ON, the NetBIOS over TCP/IP is ok. So I am out of ideas. The other laptops are working fine with mapping, but this
one. Same OEM Win7Pros like this, but this is not working.
I do not realy want to reinstall with corporate windows, but that is my last option.
What settings are wrong and where should I search it?
Can anyone help me?
thank you,
Árpád Juhász

Hi,
Are you able to connect to or access that network drive or shared folder? When you map the drive, make sure the computer you're trying to connect to is turned on and you have correct permission to perform this action.
Or try to use net use command to map the drive and check if it works.

Using MDT, cannot map a specific network drive

I built a system using the Win7 64-bit DVD, installed a few applications. Tested opening a server in question.
Then ran Sysprep and Capture and saved the image as a WIM. Put that WIM in a task sequence and installed on another machine. Now that server cannot be mapped at all. However, other servers in our network environment can map fine. What
could it be that after the sysprep, and then deployment, could prevent it mapping to a single file server? Any suggestions will be helpful as it's driving me nuts.

Your writing makes it a little difficult for me to understand, but perhaps, and I'm only guessing here, the 'Apply GPO pack' step in the "State Restore" group spoils the game here. Perhaps the GPO settings have caused a lock-down of this system in question?
What have you tried? Firewall disabled, or modifying the network center "Changed Advanced Sharing settings"?The settings that can be found there are mainly responsible for the visibility of a server.
Pres command prompt and type "net use" to see if any drive mapping has already been made, and is blocking the access..

Network Drive Mapping for users who have Port 445 (possibly others) Blocked by their ISP to a Server 2008 system

Nice to see my original posts are still up. I was hoping that in the ensuing time someone had found a solution. At least I can now see many other posting the same problems. :) Thought I was losing it for a while.
We have 100% proven that the problem (in our case) is from the ISP blocking port 445 (possibly others but 445 for SURE) with the reasoning that it prevents the spread of some Internet "worms". It also just happens to prevent people who work
from home from being able to map to their network drives at work.
What I was hoping was that eventually someone would comer up with a solution for this short of having to load a server using a different OS from Windows. The SMB protocol is the one needing port 445 as far as I can tell. Not all ISP block
port 445 and the laptops that use those ISP's have no problem. Unless they travel.  Then it is "hit or miss" as to whether the ISP for the Hotel they stay at blocks it.
I have run multiple tests to prove that this was in FACT the problem. Even the particular ISP in question which is a very large national ISP company freely admits they do this supposedly to prevent the spread of an unnamed Internet Worm. It also
happens to prevent Business use of their Internet by Home Subscribers at they cannot map to their Business Servers which also need port 445 to map.
I have used WebDAV successfully to get around this but at a huge loss of speed and performance. Cloud services all do essentially the same thing and all have pretty much the same loss of speed.
If anyone has come across a method of allowing a drive mapping to be rerouted to any other port, that is the only hope I have short of changing to an alternate OS for the Office Server and even then I cant be sure until I try if it would help. I read
somewhere about the possibility of routing through a proxy but again, the problem would still be that the requests for mapping are expected on port 445 on the server and they will not get through even to the proxy since the originating ISP is the one blocking
the port from the User's system.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated I have posted this question now for several years with no one yet providing a working solution. Hope burns Eternal though :)

Yes, OwnCloud is an option as well as many others. Even self hosted Cloud services such as the WD MyCloud all work. The problem is speed. JungleDisk is the best I have found so far. I am not sure exactly what they use to allow the
drive mapping but it seems to work faster that anything else I have found.
VPN's don't work. At least none of them I have tried. I can connect a VPN with no problem. But still cannot map a drive over it.   Actually, there are some issues with the VPN as well but these are just a matter of methodology.
Mapping to the FQDN works for some people while others require the public IP. Some users on some ISP's can map using the FQDN, others have to map to the IP. That in itself was a bit odd.
I have tried every trick I could find including adding the IP and/or FQDN to the Windows Hosts file on the server as well as on the client systems. This actually did help to get the VPN to connect in some cases. However, it still would
not allow me to map a drive letter.
I can create a Network Place, This also works. But it will not allow me to MAP that "network place" to a drive letter. I have tried multiple utilities that allow mapping of Drive letters to almost anything but they wont work to map to a
Network Place.
The software that needs the mapped drive is a SQL database which runs on port 2004. The program itself has no problems at all connecting to the server to run the database. Even on systems which cannot map to the needed drive letter for the documents
referred to in the database.   Users can run it and look up all kinds of material but it it is only a half-solution since the database refers to files stored in a "common-mapped" drive letter. Which I cannot Map.
I have tried every possible configuration of the VPN setup I could find, I have even tried a "Test System" with the NIC connected directly to the T1 Modem. With all firewalls off and no AV software. Even if that had worked, there is no
way I could run like that. But it didn't. Same issues. All this did was put the blame squarely on the User's ISP which was the only reason I did it. I had to rule out even the slightest chance that it was something in our equipment.
This was already almost a certain fact since the same user could take their laptop to a WiFi Hotspot at a fast food restaurant and connect as well as map the drive. As soon as they went back home, no drive. On the ones I could convince to pay
the extra charges, if they switched to a business connection from their ISP, No Problems.
On most MiFi or other Cellular Internet devices, No Problem, Although that had a habit of changing. We had a few that worked for a while, then they got a software update for their MiFi which immediately blocked the ability to map. Others
it would be that some models of Cellular HotSpot units worked while other would not work even if both came from the same carrier.
Coincidentally, we had none of these problems before two other events occurred:
One was the release of Server 2008 R2, (which was a kid of "surprise" change for all of us used to Server 2008 R1. Welcomed changes, but not expected with a simple SP release.
The other was IPV6 finally became a reality: June of 2012.
This left us with much head scratching as to what was the real cause of the problem. It took months to narrow it down to port blocking by the Outside ISP's with a 100% certainty. Even tried reloading a system with Server 2008 R1 just to rule
that out. As well as disabling IPV6 on every network device. The problem stayed with the User when Outside and which ISP they were connected to.
Currently we are using a mix of normal VPNs for those who can run them, and CLOUD access for those who can't. Even this is problematic since we have to keep both the local copy and the cloud copy in constant sync so that everyone sees the same versions
of the same files on each one.
Sorry to make this so long but I wanted to cover everything to show that we tried it all. The only thing left short of getting the ISP's to remove the port blocks would be to find a way to route the SMB file requests around port 445 in some way.
I have been told that this is easy enough if using a file system other than Windows but that is not an option even if true.
Thanks for the updates and ideas. I keep hoping that eventually there will be some secure method for mapping a drive letter that does not depend on having port 445.

MSI installer closes with error 1327, Invalid drive on Win 7 Ultimate when My Documents is moved to a network drive

I have several computers with Windows 7 Ultimate installed here at the Pioneer Library System. We have ~20 workstations running XP Pro on a Active Directory domain and are planning on rolling out Windows 7 this fall. I am running Windows 7 to test our programs
(have since RC1) but I am running into an issue when installing software.
The problem I am running into is that when I try to install any program that uses the MSI installer on Windows 7 , it fails with a 1327 error at the point where it is preparing to install and says "Invalid Drive H:\".
All the users in our domain have the "Home Folder" on their active directory profile set to
H:\ (which is mapped to \\PrimaryDC\user$ in the same place). We have also moved the
C:\Users\user\Documents folder to H:\ so as to keep all documents on the server where they get backed up regularly.
If I move "Documents" back to C:\Users\user\Documents the MSI installer works fine. When I look into the registry as suggested in
this thread I found that in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders " and in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders " the key "Personal" points to "H:\".
But, H:\ is a valid connected network drive. Installing from the same account on an XP computer with
C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents moved to the H:\ drive works fine.
I have tried setting up another 7 machine and get exactly the same results on it.
Is there a workaround for this besides creating a admin account that does not have Documents mapped to the network drive
H:\ to use for installing programs?
Thanks

PLS

I do not have the option with some of these files to pass parameters to the MSI installer. For example, if I download the Acrobat Reader installer from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe and run AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe
it extracts the MSI file to C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files and then runs it.
To reproduce this an a Windows 7 computer (does not have to be on a domain):
Prep Work:
Create a user (test1)
Create a folder on the root of C (C:\Test)
Set permissions on C:\Test to allow the test1 user to have full access to it
Share the C:\Test folder as test1 (again, set the permissions to allow the test1 user full access)
Set the "Home Folder" for the test1 user connect to Z: and point that to \\127.0.0.1\test1
Login as test1
Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
Check that it works:
Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
Note that it works
Uninstall Acrobat Reader 9.3 using "Programs and Features"
Break it:
Login as test1
Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
Go to C:\Users\test1
Right click on the Documents folder and click on properties
Click on the Location tab
Click on "Browse" and select the Z drive
Allow Windows to move the files to the new location
Check that it is broken:
Check that you have access to the new Documents folder at Z:\
Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
Note that it extracts itself to C:\Users\test1\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files
and runs the MSI installer from there
Note that after the MSI installer is started it pops up an error saying Error: 1327, Invalid drive Z:\.
I also see this with various other install programs (VMWare vSphere Client, VMWare Player and Kaspersky Antivirus for example)
Is there any reason why this should not work? Is there something that I should be doing differently?
Thanks

Click OK, Lenovo System Update will download the update and appear to install it.
At the end it will tell me: 'System Update was installed successfully'
Click Close, just to be sure I wait for a while so System Update can finish whatever it is doing in the background (if anything at all).
When nothing appears to happen I launch Lenovo System Update manually and it will tell me it needs to update itself again, and go to the same process as above. The update did not install successfully at all. System update keeps updating itself in a loop.
Next thing I tried is manually downloading the latest System Update version from http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=TVSU-UPDATE
I downloaded systemupdate503-09-17-2013.exe for my Windows 7 machine.
The installer detects to old version of System Update and offers to uninstall that. I click Yes.
A moment later the real error appears: 'Error 1327.Invalid Drive: S:\'
The only thing I can do now is press OK to close the installer.
The S:\ drive is my network drive which is permanently mapped to a share on my NAS.
It is not an invalid drive, S:\ opens fine in Windows Explorer.
I don't know why the System Update installer wants to access my S: drive in the first place. All my applications are installed on C:. While I did move some special folders like My Pictures and My Videos to S:, the relevant folders My Documents and Desktop are still on C:.
I have found a workaround to the problem above:
Close Lenovo System Update completely when it says it needs to update itself.
Run Command Prompt as Administrator (find it in the start menu, righ-click it and 'Run as administrator').
Type 'subst s: c:\' without the quotes. Replace s: with the drive letter of your network drive, and c: should be an existing regular drive.
Now run Lenovo System Update again and let it update itself.
You'll notice System Update now restarts itself after updating and there are no problems.
Once you are done with System Update, type 'subst s: /D' to delete the substituted virtual drive. Don't worry, this will not delete your actual network drive.
The workaround does the job, but it would be nice to see an actual fix from Lenovo. I have a ThinkPad X230 running 64bit Windows 7 Professional if this is relevant.

Please try either of the workaround.
1. Create a new Admin user, log on in that and then you can install Adobe Reader,
or
2. easier solution is just create a dummy folder on your machine anywhere, lets says Folder name "Dummy" in c:\
not go to command prompt
and type subst I: c:\dummy
and you are all set to go.
once you are done, you can remove that virtual drive mapping by
subst I:\ /d
please let me know if works.

File adapter write to network drive fails

Hi all,
I have a problem using the FIle adapter. The situation is as follows:
- SOA Suite 10.1.3.5.0. installed on Windows
- SOA Suite runs under windows user soaadmin, a user with local admin rights.
- A network share is mapped as a network drive on a remote (windows) server, assigned drive letter 'T'.
- user soaadmin is added to a user group on the remote server that has local admin rights on the remote server.
- In my BPEL process, the file adapter is configured to write files to 'T' drive.
- At runtime, ORABPEL-11054 occurs: Directory cannot be created successfully. Directory: T:/ cannot be created successfully.
- If I configure the file adapter to write to 'C' drive all functions well.
- From the windows explorer, user soaadmin can create files on 'T' successfully soa apparently has the right privileges on 'T'.
Any clue as to what may be wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Regards Rob

please use FTP adapter instead of File Adapter.
Thanks,

Connect Windows XP to Mac Network Drive

I have a little wireless home network between two Macs and an Airport Extreme. I have a Mac-formatted external drive connected to the Airport Extreme, used for mostly for file sharing between the two Macs. I also have a Windows XP (SP3) laptop connected to this Airport Extreme for access to the Internet, and I would like to be able to access the external drive as a network drive, as well. I have been trying to map the external network drive via Windows XP, but it doesn't show up anywhere. The "network" doesn't even show up in Windows Explorer.
Is what I'm trying to do even possible? If so, can someone point me in the right direction to set it up correctly?
I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Michael

Thank you for responding.
I have managed to partition the drive using the Mac using the latest leopard (10.5.6) using GUID and Mas OS extended (journaled). PC partition was Master Boot and whatever the MS-Dos option was. The PC partition works.
I connected to the PC and the PC partition is recognized and shared. However the Mac Partition does not show and you cannot see it through the network from the mac either.
I am new to the Mac OS X so bare with me please. Is what I am asking it to do possible? Or do you have to purchase a Time Capsule to use TM, unless it is connected via a USB or Firewire?
I am not sure what #4 Mac Running 10.5 server (where do I check that) or what #5 "SAN volumne managed by Apple's Xsan file system" are.
Can you kindly explain, and if there are steps I need to know, please elaborate. I appreciate the help.
Is is possible to run time machine a Mac partition of an external drive, connected to a PC (Win xp media) and accessed through a wireless gateway network.

GPO not removing network drives

I have used a vbscript to remove the network drives that are currently connected on a users machine and then connect to the new drives on our new server. The script is fully functioning when run manually, but whenever I put it in a GPO the script seems
to skip over the part where it removes the other drives. I even placed that line of code before the mapping of new network drives in order to test that it's not getting caught up on that particular line and stopping but the rest of the file is still run and
all drives are mapped after that. Can anyone help me figure out why this isn't working?

Hi,
Using Group Policy Preferences, you can remove or replace the existing mapped drives for users using actions "Delete" and "Replace" respectively.
Delete - Remove a mapped drive for users.
Replace - Delete and recreate mapped drives for users. The net result of the Replace action is to overwrite all existing settings associated with the mapped drive. If the drive mapping does not exist, then the Replace action creates
a new drive mapping.
Checkout the below link on Technet article for more information on mapped drive options using Group Policy preferences,

Unable to map a network drive in Windows 8.1 Professional

I am using a Dell Venue 11 Pro tablet with Windows 8.1 professional.
I was able to setup the domain on the tablet but I am unable to map any drives.
The tablet is shown in Active Directory on our domain controller and I am using an established user name and password.
When I try to map the drives, none of the network servers are showing. When I manually type in the server location it says it is an invalid address.
We are using Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.

Hi,
Can you ping the domain computers?
Go to your network setting, turn on network discovery setting.

Unable to access mapped network drive, DFS

TL;DR: Unable to map a network drive on one particular computer, except if circumventing DFS.
OK - So I have exhausted all my options in this matter, so all suggestions are welcome.
Keep in mind the file system is DFS.
1. User has been set up the same as our other users in Active Directory.
2. Most network drives are connected via GPO. They are mapped via\\company.local\common\
3. The users' home folder is connected via setting in AD -> Profile -> Home folder ->
Connect X: To \\company.local\homedir\username
4. When the user logs on, all network drives defined in GPO are mapped OK, but the X: which is defined via "Home folder" in AD, is not connected. When trying to map it manually, we get "Access denied".
5. If the user tries the complete path via Explorer: \\company.local\homedir\username - Error 0x80004005 Unspecified error occurs. We have googled this particular code but found nothing that applies to us.
6. If the user tries the complete path to the folder on the actual file server, circumventing DFS, the home folder is mapped OK.
Strange thing is: This only happens on this particular computer. If users logs on to another computer, in the same domain, receiving the same GPO etc. The X: is mapped fine via \\company.local\homedir\username
Also if another user logs on to the problematic computer they also cannot access their X: on \\company.local\homedir\username
So we tried updating the WLAN/LAN drivers to no avail. Might there be any settings on the network adapters that might cause this?

If other computer has the same policy ("Send NTLMv2 response only. Refuse LM"), it should not be the cause.
I agree that all clients should have the same Group Policy but sometimes the group policy may not be applied correctly on a client which causes issues. Thus you can try a "gpupdate /force" and see if issue persists.
Also you can test to access \\company.local to see if it will success. Try \\rootserver as well if it is different as DFS folder target.
As the issue only occurs on a specific client, maybe we can have a try with re-join domain.
