I have had my drive mapped and everything working for years now. I have added a second machine to the network and mapped the same folders on that machine. Now on my first machine the mapped folders no longer work and ask me for a User and Password. Not a single User name or password work in the dialogue box except the Admin/Admin. When I restart/reboot my system will not connect the drives automatically or remember even the Admin password. I have even setup all of the folders as “public” and still nothing works as it should.
End result looking for:
All I’m looking for is it to work like it did - turn on computer and drives map automatically.
I do not know why none of the usernames or passwords work - I’m sure this has something to do with it.
My set-up
My Book World Edition (white light) -WD10000H1NC - firmware is current - wired (network local) set up.
Machine 1: Vista - zero changes have been made (did work fine in the past but not anymore)
Machine 2: Win 7 pro - mapped drive “folders” works just fine.
All users have admin rights and I do know all the passwords.
All systems, network, etc. Are up to date, current firmware.
Any help anyone can provide would be great!!!
