No relevant? Success or failure? Or just
success entries?

Oh, I'm sure it's an authentication
issue.
The initial logs I checked were on Aspen (the server to
which the connection is failing). I have now also checked on the client and
on the DCs and there are no relevant entries.
Aspen is not a DC.
Thanks,
Michael

Yup, that looks OK to me as well - assuming that box isn't
a DC, right?
Al's probably on the right track (as usual...~sigh~) -
could you be getting an 'access denied' somewhere along the line?
Where did you chek the event logs - anything in the security logs on the client running the script, the server Aspen, or the DC's?

Everything looks OK, as far as I can see. Aspen doesn't run
the computer browser service so it doesn't have a 1e record. Looks just like a
number of other servers records...
Thanks,
Michael

Try using NBTSAT to see if you can discern any NetBios
issues...more useful tool for that than ping.

Yeah, I thought about that, but the server (aspen) is both
in WINS and in DNS. ping works fine (specify the netbios name, returns the DNS).
The script makes six attempts, so I'm certain it has long
enough.
There are no failures in the security log (and the accesses
are logged as success). Nothing relevant in the system or application log
whatsoever.
Thanks,
Michael

Path not found? Are you getting an issue with netbios
name resolution for that? Maybe not returning fast enough for the
script?
How about the security and system logs for this one?
Anything there?

OK, I'm logged in as a Domain Admin and an
Enterprise Admin on our domain. My desktop
is a member of the domain.
I have one server,
which is a member of the domain, it is not a
DC, running Windows 2000 Server, sp4, that if I don't create a
mapped share (and authenticate separately) that the script below fails
with:
Error 0x4C occurred in GetDrive for: \\aspen\c$
Error 0x4c is error 76 in decimal, and means: "Path not found". But if I map anything to that server (C$, D$, IPC$), using my domain login, the script will then work fine.I've got 40+ servers where this works fine. Just this one doesn't.
Any one of you gurus have any ideas why this might be failing?
Thanks so much!
Michael
