Hello, more knowledgeable ones. . . Can anyone tell me, please, whether there is a way round this annoying filer problem? I still have not managed to re-establich either Omniclient nor LanMan98 connection with the networked PC since its last rebuild of WinXPPro so have to resort to the 1Gb Datawrite USB stick I have. This usually works very well but just occasionally - and I haven't worked out what causes it yet - it refuses access with this frustrating error message. Is there some * command which gets round the problem? A re-boot and potential loss of whatever is on the desktop always resets everything but is very annoying when in the middle of something involved.
