Hi,
Not sure if anyone has ran into this scenario and found a solution. We have Windows XP pro laptops that users use to connect via VPN to mapped network drives but are unable to access them. Listed below is the error message that users get when trying to access
them.
An error occurred while reconnecting R:\\ip address\folder name
Microsoft Windows Network. The local device name is already in use.
The connection has not been restored.
The mapped drives look normal when viewing them under My Computer. But when you view the properties for each drive connected via vpn it shows that the drive is disconnected. I have also checked to make sure there was not a DHCP issue and tried even by manually
mapping the drive and enter the username and password, except no luck. I then tried to connect to the drives via workgroup instead of logging in to the domain user profile and it worked. Any ideas or solution will be helpful.
Thank you.
