| Newbie Rep Power: 5  |  Using DOS to connect to a shared folder I'm trying to access ghost.exe which I have copeid to shared folder C:\Ghost on Vista Home Basic, using a network drive mapping DOS boot disk. The boot disk is obtainable free to download at Universal TCP/IP Network Bootdisk for M$ Networks. I have correctly configured the IP addresses in the config file on the boot disk, and configured net use G: \\vistab\ghost as the drive to be mapped. I have shared the c:\ghost folder for Everyone group full control and also added Everyone group to security permissions full control. Each time I try to access the folder from the dos prompt run from the floppy boot disk I get 'Error 5 - Access Denied'. I can ping vistab from dos and recieve a reply, and vice versa. I turned off Windows Firewall and turned off Password Protected folder sharing. Still can't get it to work. Has anyone had any experience with this please? |
