Hi Gene, We have encountered this issue as well. You can use the UNC name like Bill said, however depending on how your servers are set up, and depending on the firewall security, sometimes resolving the UNC name can be slow. We use the machine IP address.
\\192.168.0.0\[drive]\folder\ Another good idea is to hide your shared drives by putting a $ after the drive name when you share it. This way it will be invisible on the network and can only be accessed when mapped or typed in manually. Good luck!

We have set up another Witango Server (Windows) in addition to the one we have been running and everything seemed to work fine. The second box was receiving and processing requests, response time looked like it had improved, etc. Great! However, we create a good number of reports in PDF format and write them to a directory. We use this in our paperless shipping systems, etc. Now comes the problem. In the File builder we specify a specific directory, for example, D:/ETDocs/<@Var Local$Docname> Now, depending on which server this executes on, it seems to me this file would be written to different machines. If a person came back later and tried to look at that document they may, or may not, get the machine that this document is located on and not be able to see the file. Now, I suppose we could map drive letters on every server to point to the same place and make sure all of the drive letters are the same on every server but this seem inelegant. Has anyone run into this before and how did you work around it? Thanks for your help. ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf
