mapping network drives for services to use
I'm using win2k server and warFTPd, and I'm need to map a network drive for warFTPd to use. The problem I'm having with this is when I log off my administrator account, it disconnects the drive. warFTPd is a service and I choose to keep the server logged off for security reasons.
I'm using win2k server and warFTPd, and I'm need to map a network drive for warFTPd to use. The problem I'm having with this is when I log off my administrator account, it disconnects the drive. warFTPd is a service and I choose to keep the server logged off for security reasons. I also have the host of the network drive have a UN/PW on the share so I am the only one able to connect. The only time this ever works is when I first map the drive. I have it use the username and password as the default login, but it gives me an error when I re-login to my server. Can someone please help me?
thanks

I haven't used warFTPd before, but you should be able to do it. The features list on their website includes this: "Mounting of network drives at startup (NT service mode only)"..... maybe there's a setting for this somewhere? If it's just permissions you're having a problem with, try giving the service your username/password. To do this, open the service administrative tool, and open the properties for the warftp daemon. On the 'log on' tab, you can specify an account for the service to use.
