Good day
i have setup filesharing in conjunction with open directory.
The fileshares are working fine with mac clients, however on windows clients (win7) the fileshares bomb out and do not stay connected.
There is no domain running in the enviroment. i am now trying to get a permanent mapping to the shares using a script. my script is as follows :net use g: \\172.27.82.95\fileshares kia123 /user:JAYSELANPIL3854\cher and its a .bat file saved on the startup off the windows machines. The error that is displayed when the script runs at startup is "system error 86 occurred"

PLEASE ASSIST!!!!!!!!!


THANK YOU
