[Samba] Windows clients forget the name of a Samba network drive (e.g. "Network Drive P:")
Every so often Windows XP clients seem to forget the name of the network drives on a Samba server. For example, in Windows Explorer instead of seeing "Projects P:", users are presented with "Network Drive P:". Does anyone know if this is anything to do with Samba or just a strange Windows quirk? Samba seems to be operating without any issues and there isn't anything untoward in the logs that would suggest a problem. Note: This wouldn't be a problem except for the fact it seems to cause issues with Retrospect's automated backup routine. Regards, David Harrison
