I'm having an on-going problem with two computers on a Windows 2000 network. I came into this as the second or third person to help with the network--so I am still learning the details. The problem in short: Two Windows XP client computers (both connected wirelessly) can log-on &quot;most&quot; of the time successfully. But not all of the time. When they can't, the initial log-on to the domain works--but when they try to access their mapped drives--they get an error message--you are already logged on--the device is in use. I have looked and looked trying to find the cause--no luck. There are several other computers on this segment of the network (all wired)..the log-on, access mapped drives, the exchange server, etc.. 100% of the time. <br />
My two best guesses: It has something to do with Group Policies ffrom the previous set-up or it has something to do with the wireless connection. Any ideas.. please help!<br />
Thanks in advance..

Windows Network Log-on/mapped drives Problem

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
