WRT610N - Storage - Password access to router's mapped drive with XP Home
Is there a way to bypass the Linksys login screen when clicking on the router's mapped drive in XP Home?
We might have two things being discussed here - 1) changing a password to a existing storage account and 2) the problem of windows storing the user/password for a mapped drive after a reboot.
I'm struggling with with windows storing the user /password for my mapped drive (the external hardrive plugged into the router's USB). If I can't figure this out...I might as well return the router?! I have the "reconnect button" checked and "connect using a different user name" filled out properly. So what's the deal? Maybe someone from Linksys should address this problem. It may seem trivial to login every time but it ruins the way iTunes works and I'm guessing other music/photo software applications. If itunes can't "see" the drive at login it deafults to your "My Document/My Music" directory so everytime you have to manual re-point the library. I hope I'm clear. Linksys please help!

WRT350N Storage Password Access in Vista
This might be a known problem 'cause I saw at least one other thread where this was mentioned.
I have a USB drive connected to my WRT350N and a share setup on the router. I can mount the drive locally via "Map Network Drive" and \\192.168.1.1\MyDrive and I can even do it across the WAN using the routers WAN IP. When the drive is mapped I get a password dialog and can mount the drive using user "Guest" with no password.
My problem is that I can't get Vista to accept the passwords for any other accounts than the guest account. I get a "Logon Unsuccessful" message. This includes the admin account. No a big problem for my local network since I can mount drives under the guest account and grant guest access to all the drives fo RW, but not wise for accessing my data across the internet.
Anyone have any ideas - Is this a Vista thing or something that will need to wait for Firmware 2.0 for the WRT350N?
Thanks!
RobI have the same logon problem using Vista Home Premium edition.
The is no "secpol.msc" file to edit. Any other options?

E4200 router, wmp600n wireless adapters and mapped drives with wpa2 don't work!
Sigh
I have a file server running windows 2003 and five computers (1 windows 7, 4 windows xp-sp3).
There are two shares on the server.
When the router is setup with wpa2, three of the windows xp machines will have problems with mapped drives. Directly after the drives are mapped, everything works, but 10 or so hours later, users can no longer access these mapped drives and there is no way to reconnect them it seems.
The other two machines (windows 7 and one windows xp machine) have no problems whatsoever.
The only thing that the three computers have in common is that they are also sharing a printer (an hp j4680) attached to one windows xp machine (not the server).
If I set everything to wpa, everything works fine, but of course my wireless network speeds drop to 56mbps.
Thoughts?Peanut, I appreciate your effort, but I don't think you truly understand what is going on.
FWIW and for those experiencing similar oddities, On a mixed network of Windows Server 2003, Windows XP and Windows 7 machines, several Windows XP machines would on boot up decide that the router was the master browser. This made file shares on the server inaccessible to these machines. All machines were using wmp600n adapters.
All computers had excellent signal strength and could access the internet without fail.
What was not immediately evident to me was I was also having email issues where certain XP machines could not receive or send (sometimes one, sometimes both) pop email. I suspected it was a port blocking issue by the ISP since this problem was intermittent.
What was clear though is that in each of the machines that exhibited the problem that computer was seeing the browser as the browser master. So finally, I swapped out the router with another branded router. This is not the only case of this router behaving this way--in my searches I have run into several other people who have had issues with file sharing so I don't know if it is a model deficiency or firmware issue.
All I know is the all the problems went away with the router switch. File shares work. Email works.
So, I got a bad router that appeared to function properly--assuming this is not the case with other e4200s. I will know after RMAing this one. -
Error when mapping drive with read only permissions - unc path works fine
Hello,
we have user shares that we map to drive H:. the shares are in the form \\server\user\<loginname>. The shares have full permission and the files and folders have full permission for the user. To be clear, the shared folder is \\server\user. <loginname>
are several folders, one for each user.
We use a vb script to check if a user stores too much data and if yes, we set the permissions for the user to read only and delete (with icacls).
Unfortunately, it this happens, we cannot map the drive anymore on Windows 7 (on Windows XP it works fine). The error is "Permission denied". Interestingly, the user can still open the share with the unc - path.
Is there anything I can do, so that the user still has his drive mapped? Most user are not tech savvy enough to open their share with the unc - path.
Thank You,
PeterHi Peter,
Sorry for the delay in reply.
Please disable User Account Control in windows 7 to see if you can see the map drive. In the meantime, I suggest to use GPP instead of logon script to map drive.

Replace Mapped Drives with UNC Paths via Group Policy Preferences
We are currently using Group Policy Preferences to map network drives to drive letters for our users. Given the risk of ransomware, etc. these days we want to provide users with a UNC link rather than a mapped drive letter. Can anyone tell me
the best way to do this?

WE21 access test to NFS mapped drive fails
I have created a file port in WE21 and I'm trying to access a NFS mounted directory on our Unix box. The access test function in WE21 fails. Are there any other things I can check in SAP or on the windows box itself? I believe we have everything opened up that needs to be, but I'm obviously missing something.
I have the file permissions for the drive on the NFS Attributes tab for the "owner" set to R-W-X and R-X for "group" and "other".
Any ideas would be helpful.for my oppinion it was a big security bug in Windows 2000 that this was working and I also did not understand why Microsoft did not eliminate it.
In Windows 2000 you are able to use a Network Driveletter created by a different user with an unknown authentication (sidadm was however authenticating, SAP Kernel runs under SAPServiceSID and is able to access the driveletter).
The only way to get around this is to use directly UNC pathes WITHOUT explicit authentication. Explicit authentication means running a command which allows you to authenicate with a different username/password at the other computer (like net use
unchost\share /u:domain\user password).
If your SAPServiceSID user is able to use implicit authentication you can use the uncpath based file access (
destinationcomputer\networkshare\more\directories\file_of_interest).
Implicit authentication is possible if the other computer is based in the same domain or in a trusted domain or if both computers are located in the same workgroup and SAPServiceSID exists on all computers in the workgroup with the same password).

Access external USB hard disk drive with REISERFS Linux filesystem.
I recently bought second-hand an older MBP Pro (2006 model) with Tiger installed, which I use as a desktop system at home and I would like to be able to connect an external IOMEGA 500 GB hard disk drive to it and have read/write access to its contents (mostly video / picture / music files). I spent a while searching on the Internet for solutions - nothing usefule came up. Does anyone in here have any ideas on how to do this? Is it possible at all after all?
P.S.: Apart from this older MBP Pro, I also have a newer model (bought in early 2008) with Leopard installed - I wouldn't mind finding some solution on my problem on that OS instead...Hi,
The two ways I can see to possibly do it are to network the Linux machine & Drive, then use Samba to access it.
By using the Mac OS X Virtual File System (VFS) capability and writing kernel extensions, you can add support for other file systems. Examples of file systems that are not currently supported in Mac OS X but that you may wish to add to the system include the Andrew file system (AFS) and the Reiser file system (ReiserFS). If you want to support a new volume format or networking protocol, you’ll need to write a file-system kernel extension.

Mapped drive to other domain on another subnet disconnects
Hi,
I have a strange situation here. Tasked to change/upgrade nearly everything about this companies IT setup. Old servers, old domain name, old switches and some old workstations with XP. I bought all new servers, switches and some new workstations. set up
all the new equipment and placed a linux box as a router between the two networks. Just for reference old is 192.168.1.0/24 and new is 10.1.1.1/24. I have the 10.1.1.0 network using DHCP and defining a static route to the 192.168.1.0 network as the router
10.1.1.254. All seems to work fine and once I move a users network cable to the new switch and join them to the new domain. I can map a drive to the old file server's 1 big share and use other credentials as 'old domain\user' and password and all is well.
The issue I am running into more and more is the mapped drive from the old network disconnects. A user will open a file and work on it and when they go to save it will say it is not available. They need to open the drive then save. On rare occasions they need
to disconnect the drive and remap it.
All of this was to try to buy some time while moving the users over one department at a time, but I am spending less time working and more time remapping drives.
Any help would be welcome.
Hi rcc9979,
Seems like your map drive lose connection frequently, for good measure, please try to access or browse the mapped drive and wait for few minutes then see if it reconnects.
And please let us know if this issue happens to all users, one Specific user or only some users in one network.
Then you could use net use command with “/persistent:yes” parameter to map network drive then see if the issue still persists.
If this happens to all users, this behavior might be caused by the systems can drop idle connections after a specified time-out period (by default, 15 minutes) to prevent wasting server resources on unused sessions.
To fix this issue we could download fix tool or by Registry Editor

I recently purchased and setup my linksys WRT54GR router. I am having a problem with the mapped drives on my computer dropping their link and not being able to be reconnected.
The primary part of the network consists of a server running Windows 2003 SBS and a computer running Windows XP Pro SP2. Both computers are connected to the router via ethernet cables.
The server network card is set with an IP address of 192.168.1.2 with the Linksys router having an IP address of 192.168.1.1. The Linksys IP address is defined as the gateway for the server. The cable modem is connected to the router.
When I first start up the XP computer everything is fine. After some period of time, my mapped drives become inaccessible. The internet still works from my XP computer but if I try to access any of the mapped drives (which are pointing to the server) I can not open them. My computer can no longer "see" the server.
If I logoff and login again I can use the mapped drives again without problem. The dropping seems to happen after 10 to 12 hours of the computer being on and logged in. I never had this problem with my old router so suspect it is a setting, but I have no idea where to look
Please help!!!!
CarenIt's not tied to the lease time, but thanks for the idea.
I think my system is setup with my Windows 2003 server acting as the DHCP server, and that may be the problem since my old router used different IP addresses. I made a few changes to my setup, based on some articles I found and I am waiting to see if that helps. -
Group Policy Pref - Mapped Drives Not Applying to One User
Hi All,
I’m new to this list, so please excuse any etiquette slip ups.
I have three users at a site. All their machines are running Windows XP Service Pack 3 and have client side extensions installed. I created a group policy to map their default drives using GP User Preferences.
Each of the drives is set to "update".
As an example of the policy created XML is as follows:
<Drive clsid="{935D1B74-9CB8-4e3c-9914-7DD559B7A417}" name="H:" status="H:"
image="2" changed="2009-11-25 05:13:58"
uid="{8A44D2F4-AAE5-4F43-AEEC-D36F08EA619C}" desc="Maps the users H drive to
ServerName\users$\%username%" bypassErrors="1"><Properties action="U"
thisDrive="NOCHANGE" allDrives="NOCHANGE" userName=""
path="\\ServerName\users$\%username%" label="Home (ServerName)"
persistent="1" useLetter="1" letter="H"/></Drive>
and
<Drive clsid="{935D1B74-9CB8-4e3c-9914-7DD559B7A417}" name="J:" status="J:"
image="0" changed="2009-11-30 03:52:58"
uid="{535CD462-A45D-4363-ADA1-2316D5ECC703}" desc="Maps J drive for users to
\\ServerName\apps" bypassErrors="1"><Properties action="C"
thisDrive="NOCHANGE" allDrives="NOCHANGE" userName=""
path="\\ServerName\Apps" label="Apps (ServerName)" persistent="1"
useLetter="1" letter="J"/></Drive>
The group policy is applied to an OU for that site.
All three users are in the same OU.
All three users are also in the same “xxsitecode Users” group.
2 of the users log into their pc and get the mapped drives with no issue, but one user doesn’t.
There are no other login scripts and the user has no manually mapped drives.
He does have a H drive mapped using the profile field in his AD object as a temp measure. But every 90 mins any other manually mapped drives are removed by the policy.
We don’t use roaming profiles
To trouble shoot I have tried
- Reinstalling client side extensions
- Re-joining the pc to the domain
- Running gpupdate from the command prompt to see if any event logs are generated (none are)
- Manually mapping the drives to make sure there is network access etc – I can manually map them/he can access them.
- Creating the user a new account, when he logs in using that account he gets his mapped drives on all PC’s
- Getting the user to log into a different pc, when he does this he doesn’t get his drives – so it’s not his machine or profile
- Manually checking the security on the user object in AD against one of the users who gets their drives mapped
I'm sure the GP is fine because it works for two other users and the testing isolates his user account as the issue.
The Policy I’m having issues with is xxxx Mapped Drives/ Printers
I have posted this issue on the tech net GP discussion groups page, but haven’t had any replies.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
SimoneWhat's interesting is that I applied a new GP to users - it has one policy setting and one preferences setting. He only gets the policy setting.. aka he gets the wallpaper but not the homepage.
Also, Jorke asked me to post the gpresult /z .

We have 2 load balanced application servers that map drives with programs on them for users from a central server that are giving the warning "We can't verify who created this file. Are you sure you want to run this file?". Basically how it works
is a user logs in to one or the other application servers (for example, 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.2) and runs a log on script that maps an L:\ drive to the users folder on the central storage server (10.0.0.100). When the user goes to launch the .exe from the L:\
drive it presents that warning.
I've looked around and have seen recommendations that you need to add the site to the local intranet zone for IE, but when I try to add L:\ it tells me that I have entered an invalid sequence. It appears that you can only put network shares in that location,
which is not how we're mapping the drive.
Has anyone run in to this before and knows how to resolve it?
Thanks!Hi,
A mapped drive letter is not supported so please try to input \\server or \\server\folder to see if it will help.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected] -
Cannot access shared external hard drive with other mac accounts
I cannot access a shared external hard drive with other mac accounts (all accounts are on the same macbook Pro). The shared external drive is shared via time capsule and is connected (of course) in USB. I see well this external hard drive as a shared disk with my main account. Yes shared option has been activated with the Airport Utility .. but when I open other account these othe accounts can see the external drive but cannot access to its content that is flagged with a no way sign. Strangely enough when I close my main account and start opening a new session with one of the other account then fine I can access the external hard drive and its content .. BUT then it is from my main account than I cannot access its content the no way sign showing ..
Looks like only one account at a time can access the content of this SHARED external hard drive .. any one as an idea on how to really make it a shared hard drive so that all accounts on the same mac can also access it ? I am at my wit ends on this case. THANKS ..Results of my enquiries at Apple Genius Bar .. the guys found the problem interesting. They've been unable to provide a fix neither to give any explanation as to the reason why. To be fair I was not much impressed by the technical level demonstrated ..
In the mean time I have found that if account no.1 can see the shared external drive content and in such case account no.2 (same Mac computer) cannot see its content (only the external HD with a no way sign) this account no.2 can UNMOUNT (by ejecting) this external HD from account 1 and then remount it (just clicking on the TC shared part in a finder window) and .. see and access its content ; whilst account no.1 cannot see its content anylonger. Unless it unmounts the shared external HD and remount it .. then account no.2 can see its content anylonger. This can goes on an on.
So eventually YES the TC can allow to share a USB external drive between several accounts and a same Mac .. BUT this require to unmount and remount EACH time the external drive is accessed from a "no.2 account". So OK to share files with seldom access but not practical in case of frequent access needed.
I just I have now to figure how iTunes can automatically unmount and remount a shared external HD when it needs to access one of this shared HD content from on time account no.1 and then next time from account no.2. May be I am asking too much .. -
How to access "storage link" on WRT350N router
I recently purchased a WRT350N wireless router with storage link. One of the main reasons I picked this router was because the salesman told me I could hook up any external hard drive to the router and have the drive accessible on my home network.
I have plugged the external drive into the USB on the back of the router, but I can’t find anyway to access the drive. I have looked through the user’s guide and it didn’t help. I was hoping maybe someone out there could explain this to me.
Thanks in advance!hi... if you are using win XP system try following steps... click on start >> run >> \\IP address of the router for e.g. 192.168.1.1 (default IP) it would ask for username and password put "admin" router's default password...one window pops up for flash drive...right click on it and map a network drive...let me know if you have any issues..

since updating to Firefox 4, I cannot access my router's configuration page (http://192.168.x.x). When prompted for the username and password,Firefox's log in window does not accept a blank username field (The router does not require a username, only a password, and it's the default password). If I click OK, the password entry just comes up again. This works fine in other browsers. Is there anything I can do about this?
I had this issue, too, and fixed it by turning off the option "Tell Websites I do not want to be tracked" under Options->Advanced->Browsing.

WRT610N storage server problems
We are attempting to use a Linksys WRT610N (firmware version 1.00.02 B10) as a network attached storage server on a Windows workgroup. There are two (2) Windows XP Professional workstations and one (1) Windows Vista workstation in the workgroup.
It required a chat session with Linksys technical support just to get the storage server feature to connect. The result was that we had to scale back the number of groups and the number of users, we had to flash the firmware (which we had just done prior to the chat with technical support) and reset the router to factory defaults, requiring a complete reconfiguration of everything from system passwords to wireless keys, etc.
After the chat session with technical support, we have only two (2) shares: “Default” and “employees”. We are using only two (2) groups: “admin” and “employees”. There are two (2) users in the admin group: “Bill” and “Debi” and only one (1) user in the employees group: “Mike”.
With this ‘scaled back’ configuration, the shared resource was available to be mapped under Windows. Each of the workstations in our workgroup reconnects to one of the shares at startup and maps it to a local drive letter. While each of the shares is set up to ‘reconnect at logon’ and ‘remember password’, we almost always have to log in to the share manually after starting up the PC.
The resultant mapped drive is incredibly unreliable and regularly completely unavailable. I have never known a networked resource to behave this unpredictably.
Often, one of us will open a folder, which we know contains numerous folders and files, only to find a subset of the actual contents or no contents whatsoever. They are there; apparently they are just not being displayed. This is evidenced by the fact that, sometimes, navigating up a level and back into the same folder, after a period of time, yields the entire folder’s contents.
Regularly, when attempting to access the ‘B:’ drive, we receive "'B:\' is not accessible, network access denied" or "The folder 'B:\' isn't accessible. The folder may be located in an unavailable location, etc."
At other times, we receive a wide variety of errors when attempting to access this share.
When navigating from the ‘B:’ drive, through two levels of folders, selecting a file and double-clicking same, Excel opens and reports "Could not open 'B:\...'"
When attempting a File->Open operation from within Excel, selecting the file, clicking ‘Open’ we receive the same result. Other times, Excel will report "Access denied, contact your administrator"
When attempting to save a file that has been successfully opened previously, sometimes we receive "Document not saved"
After navigating to an existing file spec., attempting to save over same, being prompted that the file already exists and asked if we want to replace the existing file, we respond ‘yes’ and sometimes receive "The system cannot find the file specified"
Often, waiting a few minutes will allow these problems to clear. In some cases, we are required to re-start the router in order to resolve the problems.
All of these errors are intermittent. If we had a reliable recreation scenario, we would open a problem ticket with technical support. However, these problems do seem to be happening more often as time goes on.
These interruptions are understandably frustrating but, more importantly, our staff is experiencing a significant productivity impact due to the periodic unavailability of our shared files. This impact is becoming a considerable cost to our operation. We are not making unreasonable demands upon this device. We simply want two levels of access to a shared drive for three individuals; this was an advertised feature that influenced our decision to purchase the device.
We have observed these same behaviors using our current drive (a two terabyte Western Digital USB external hard drive) and a sixty-four gigabyte Kingston Data Traveler DT150 pocket USB drive. Inspection of the .storage_info file showed that the firmware had been mismanaging the users and groups. There were remnants of previously removed groups and an instance of a duplicate group (this duplicate group could also be observed through the router’s administration menus). It required a flash of the firmware, a reset to defaults on the router and complete reconfiguration from scratch (with the simplest possible set of groups and users) just to be able to access the two shares.
Perusal of the various Internet forums leads me to believe that this feature was not ready for release in the WRT600N and has not been corrected in the WRT610N. We are obviously one of many customers experiencing similar problems with this aspect of the router. We are thus far very disappointed with this feature of the router and am seriously considering falling back to our previous scheme of shared files on one of the workgroup machines, which worked flawlessly. We would have liked to use the FTP server and external access functions but, as unreliable as the basic share features have been, we dare not even attempt to configure these more advanced features.
In the past, I have associated a certain level of quality and reliability with the Cisco name, however, it troubles me that they have placed their name on this product, if only through the acquisition of Linksys.
At this point, unless someone can offer some miraculous suggestion, I believe we are going to be forced to purchase some other device to meet our requirements. This device came highly recommended by CNET.com (and still does); I will also feel compelled to log onto their site and write a less than favorable review of the device.
Please advise.Thanks for your suggestion but there are no floppy drives in any of these systems so both 'A' and 'B' appear in the list of available drive letters to be mapped, we have tried a variety of drive letters with the same result (the 'B:' references were just for the sake of examples in the write-up) and we have tried it without any mapped drive letter with the same unreliable results.
Further, I purchased an actual NAS from Western Digital yesterday, installed it and mapped it as the 'B:' drive on all three systems and it works flawlessly, as it should
After telling me to e-mail '[email protected]' and having that address respond to contact: '[email protected]', they responded that Linksys technical support is eliminating e-mail technical support. So, they did not even read the MS-Word document I had created with snapshots of the various error dialogs. Since the problem is intermittent, there is no point to phone or live chat support as it will result in: "well, it seems to work now" and most likely another waste of my time re-flashing the firmware, resetting to factory defaults and completely reconfiguring.
This device DOES NOT do what it claims to. I have wasted far too many hours on what is apparently a terrible firmware release that they do not intend to correct. Our technical support experience has been unacceptable, our new solution works great (thank you, Western Digital) and we will not be purchasing from Linksys again in the future.
