Can you connect to a Win NT 4.0 mapped network drive from OS/2 Warp 4 ?? If so, how. I need to copy files from one PC to another regularly.

Yes, you will have to set up a user account on the NT server. Lan requester will have to be installed on the OS/2 server. you will then need to logon from the OS/2 server using the LOGON userid /Ppasswword /Ddomain command. More help on this can be obtained by typing LOGON with the /? option. Some times you will have to use the verify domain option of the logon command. once this is complete, you will need to do a net use from the os/2 server to map the shared drive on the nt server. This command is in the format of NET USE drive: \\ntserver\share replacing drive with the drive letter you wish os/2 to use to access the drive and ntserver with the machine name of the NT machine and share with the share name you gave the resource when you shared it out on the NT machine. Hope this helps.
