We use a program that automatic, depending on the day of the week, makes several copy's and starts other programs to update files and afterwards copy
these to the appropriate directories and servers.
This gave no problems at all in Windows XP pro, but now we have that station (only used for this) replaced with one using Windows 8.1 pro.
The problem is following:
Namely yesterday we used the instruction: net use g: \\server\sharename (for example.:monday), the drive letter was usable no problem.
Today we start the station up and the drive letter g: is still there.
But we must adapt this to the new day namely tuesday.
First we delete the old mapping : net use g: /delete, no problem
then we create the new: net use g: \\server\tuesday but then we receive: systen error 055 has occurred
The odd thing is that when I take the dosbox and use the same instructions of net use manually the new drive is correct in the list in the dosbox.
BUT in my computer window the old mapping is still there, as disconnected network drive.
What is happening here?
