Hello 🙂 Please, help me! How can I access to the F: drive with 3DS 2.01 under Novell Netware 3.11 Thanks. Santiago Revellado.

Hmmmm…Although I'm not a network expert, I can tell you from my experience that, if your network is running properly (ie: remapping drives, which I assume your F: drive is, or a server drive), the drive will just show up as a drive option in any load/save operation. -Alan Iglesias

Try logging onto the the drive before you go into 3DS. Do a Directory, then bail-out and go back to where you were. Then startup 3DS. I have the same problem with my CD-ROM. So I put the routine in my Autoexec.bat so I won't have to fool w/ it. 🙂 Alan – Hords of Fun!

Ummm, I think you are writing this message to someone else, Alan. I had originally replied to someone with a network-related question some days ago. Can't remember who it was, though. -Alan Iglesias

Santiago, Hmmm.. SHould be no problem at all. If you can go to your F: drive while in DOS the drive will show up in 3DS. Did you possibly forget to load your network drivers before starting 3DS? Dave Mennenoh

Santiago, I would suspect that you have lost your mapping for Netware. At the dos prompt type in map . What is shown there? If your drive(s) aren't showing up, then you need to remap them. You may need to see your network administrator if you don't know their precise location. Otherwise it is Map x:=fs1\sys:3ds2\meshes where x is the drive you want mapped, fs1 is the file server name and sys is the volume name, and 3ds2\meshes is whatever directory you are looking for.

Joseph, Think you left this message to the wrong person. Good reply though. Dave Mennenoh

Oopps. I guess switching to the windows version of CIM was more confusing than I thought. Thanks.
