I've got a 2.2.3a-12 (Debian Stable) Samba server running on a small network with 98, 2000, and XP machines. The server is a domain controller and the computers are members of the domain. We are using login scripts to map the drives. I have one computer that is having a weird issue. When the user first logs on, you can go to My Computer and see the drive fine. Double-clicking on the drive results in a window being opened with the files (like normal), but in the address bar at the top, you see a red "X" on the icon. From that point on, you will have the red X. When saving files, the user gets a "Permanent connection not available" message, but the file saves OK. I have mapped other drives letters, using both the login script and manually mapping them in My Network Places. All mappings to this share give the same result. Other Windows 2000 machines on this network don't have this problem. Any ideas?
