XP SP2 DFS Error
 
I use mapped DFS-Drives like I:\, P:\ H:\ on my workstations in our office.
When a client makes them offline and reboot the computer he cannot access
the mapped DFS-Drive for the first time. (Error the computer cannot contact
the domain controller ........). The workarround ist to show the propertys
of the DFS-Drive before he clicks on the drive with windows explorer.
NON DFS-mapped drives (Servername\share) in offline mode works fine.


With SP1 there are no problems in offline mode on my machines.

Is this a bug??

That was a well-done link, Mr. MVP. It does not work. Thanks so much.

The link does work - it must be displaying over line breaks in your
newsreader.

Try http://snipurl.com/9axo
