Hi list. I've got a samba 3.0.25b server with windows XP clients. I meet trouble with mail merging on Word 2003. When this document is opened, Word says that it can't open the data source (X:\path), when the data source is on a mapped drive. But when the data source is on the UNC path everything is ok. Did I missed something in my smb.conf ? Thanks ! Derreck.
Remember that office see connections such as //192.168.1.1/whatever as insecure and the document may not open. I have seen this on access. Try to mount to the computer name such as //servername/whatever this could be the problem Gerhard eric wrote:> Hi list. > I've got a samba 3.0.25b server with windows XP clients.
