I am currently using a backup program that I thought would back up from any location including a NAS drive but this is not the case. The backup program does not show the NAS drive directory... I was just wondering if there is a way of making a NAS drive appear as a local drive. I've mapped the drive and created symbolic links for it as well and it still does not appear. I was planning on using the iSCSI method but I believe my NAS does not support it.
My WLSE 1030 hard drive failed and I have replaced it with a new drive but when I boot from the 2.15 recovery CD the disc boots and runs, within the console connection I get the error "ERROR: version information not found in flash" the disc is the ejected and the system reboots.How can I reload the system software.
I'm currently in college, and do most things with my laptop, and I have wifi just about everywhere. It has a generous 500 GB of storage, but I'd like to store non-essential files on, an external hard drive. However, lugging around 3 TB of storage isn't exactly feasible, and with my experience with my current 1.5 TB portable drive, me running around everywhere with it bouncing in my bag is just going to abuse it until it stops functioning (which it has...)[URL]

We have a user that works from home and connects to our network through a VPN when she needs to access files on our server (mapped as a shared drive.)I created a new shared folder on that same server and she can't map a drive to it. It just continuously prompts for username/password.She is running Win 7 Pro, server is Server 2008. The server is on a domain, she is not. She already has a mapped drive to a different folder on the same server as well as to a folder on another server. We are trying to map using the IP address (\IPFolder) and have tried putting the username as IPUsername and just Username with no luck. Tried mapping with net use. Found some stuff online about changing some registry values - tried that. Change the network type from "Home" to "Work" and still no luck.
Odd issue with a Win XP PC with SP3 in a company network. The computer can browse to the network shares using the UNC path via the run command, but can not map a network drive to the same path. Explorer says the path is not valid or can't be found, but the account has no issues accessing the share via the UNC path. At one point this worked fine as there are existing drive mappings on the computer, but none of them work any longer saying the the location is unavailable.
We have a network drive and it's ip is 192.168.1.3. We have created different users with different permissions for each folders. I have a problem in mapping the network drive in each computer. I can map each folder in them though.I access the drive using run command \192.168.1.3 and it displays all folders. I map the folder but don't know how to map the drive itself.
A program is installed on our server, and I run it on my pc by mapping a network drive to the server's hard drive.I'm sure you all know this procedure.Anyway, I can access the shared drive on the server from my pc, browse, create and delete files on the server, all fine.But, when I try to map the drive, it says:"Windows cannot find 'WEaXA.EXe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."And its only on my pc this happens, on all the other pcs its working fine. And from my pc I can map any other shared folder/drive.
One of my Laptop, I cannot see the Network Share Drive from My Network Place. I am using DNS320 Dlink. But I can ping and I can access web base go inside Network Share drive management. But when I try to ma \sharedrivenamefolder, "Error code 0x80070035 Network path was not found ". I already restart the network drive, router and this computer also cannot. Last time we using vbscript to set at startup and let it map automatically when window boot up every day. Other PC with XP all can access. I cannot upgrade vista to 7 because it's from remote site. But now why cannot I don't know what happen with Fuzzy Vista home.
I have a Windows XP SP3 PC and want to map a drive on it thorugh my wireless network The wireless network has a router (SpeedPort W 701V) that connects to internet, this wireless network is password secured (WPA personal) and open to any device that knows the password.
I've seen some supposed 'tutorials' on this but they differ quite a bit: do any of you know for sure how to map a microsoft skydrive folder as a network drive so that clients can use it as a 'normal' way of sharing files?the same question could be posed for Google Docs - I guess these are competitors/equivalent in aim.
In my office I have set up a NAS server which is connected to a Netgear VPN router. When I try to connect remotely I can open the VPN tunnel but when I try to access the network drive, it says the network path cannot be found.
Is it possible to Map a Network Drive over a VPN?Users in my company connect to a remote site using VPN (PPTP) and i am wondering, can i map a drive to the PC i am on from the remote network while connected to VPN?
Today we lost access to our external hard drive (T:). We got the error "An error occured while reconnection T: to \192.168.1.254share Microsoft Windows Network. The local device name is already in use. This connection has not been restored" Do I have to Re-Map that Network Drive?
I have a 1TB internal SATA HD that I want to turn into a network drive. Since the MB in the desktop I had this drive in fried, I'm looking for options to network this drive (that stores photos, music, utilities, etc). So far after brief research, looks like my most reliable option would be an external enclosure with USB and a router with a USB share port.
-what other options do I have? -what would be a good wireless N/G router with a USB share port, great range or range extender option and can handle multiple devices online (xbox, ps3, wii, droid phones, 2x or more laptops, wifi Tv all not connected at once, but a few can be, so I need a router to handle the demand) -a good reliable external enclosure
I need a router that has a good strong signal. The current G router I have (d-link di-524(?)) works ok, but the signal cuts out in the kitchen and virtually non-existent in my garage (to use Pandora on phone).
I am trying to run Windows XP in a Virtual Machine on my Windows 7(64bit) system. I have a Windows XP cd, but my cd-player is broken. I shared a cd-player on a different pc and am able to access it as a shared folder. I tried copying the files to my HD and making aan ISO out of em. This worked, but my Virtual Machines(VMware Player & Oracle VM VirtualBox) don't detect it as a windows install, also tried to mount this ISO. detect the original XP cd with one of these VM's. But in order for this to work I have to make my system think that the cd-player on the other pc is part of the local setup,
I have a server which has multiple NIC's.NIC 1 is connected to the network / internet etc.NIC 2 is connected to a NAS drive.Obviously I can access the NAS drive from the server, but how can I access the NAS drive from devices on the network i.e. on NIC 1?Is it possible to access the NAS from a different subnet?
I know it is possible, but how do I set up a hard drive to share on a LAN? Current setup is a MBP and iMac sharing a linksys e2500. I would be shooting for at least 1TB for shared usage but that can be worked out later.
I work for a company and I am currently trying to make some changes to the security on our NAS drive, (I will give specifics of the equipment we are using below). The NAS drive we have does have some security functionality on it however we don't have the username and password (it was set up before I arrived and now no one knows anything about it). I am able to restore the NAS to factory settings which apparently will not affect the content of the drive however it will in addition to resetting the password and username, reset the IP address.Now the concern I have is that once I have reset this, then will the computers which are connected to it be no longer able to access the drive which is essential for the business.
The NAS is connected to a switch which then feeds off via Ethernet to 8 separate computers (6 running XP, 2 running Windows 7), will this mean that when the IP address is reset the computers will lose access to the drive or will they be okay as they are still connected via Ethernet. If they will lose access what will I need to do to 'reconnect' them. [code]
I've just replaced my ZyXEL modem router with a Belkin Play N600 Wireless Dual-band Modem Router and eventually persuaded my PC to access the internet wirelessly. BUT I now can't access the Plextor StoreX NAS drive. I just don't seem to be able to locate it although it still works on other PCs on the network.I moved the 4 ethernet cables that were connected to the ZyXEL into the corresponding 4 slots on the Belkin so the format is exactly the same as before. That is cables to: The NAS drive Other PCs, printers, scanners etc etc on Network My PC Spare cable for non-wireless laptop connection. how I can get access on my PC to the NAS.At the same time the other PCs on the network (too far away for wireless access) now cannot get internet access, although a laptop connected to the spare cable can........
I work as a System Administrator for a small company. Can i share a CD drive to all the computers in my domain. Or does this require any additional software to do all this. Because i tried to do it normally by sharing that CD drive and by which it was also available in my network. But when i was trying to access that it says "The drive is not ready". We use Windows operating system in our network. I even tried to google this but i could not find any exact answer for this till now.
mapped network drive getting disconnected always.is there any batch file available to check the status every minute whether the drive is connected or not??
