NT4/2000 Restart/Rebot with mapped Network drivers
You have created (="mapped")
a network drive in
NT4 or a network drive in Windows
2000
( on this issue, Windows
95/98/ME offer a better solution via a "Quick Logon") with
the option to "Reconnect at logon",
but at the time of a restart / reboot of the NT4 or Windows
2000 system, the system sharing the resource is powered off,
resulting now to an error message:

the network drive with the failed connection is
marked with a red cross:
 |
NT4 |
 |
Windows 2000 |
Once the system sharing the resource is powered up, just use the
mapped drive, the system
will establish now the network connection.
If you attempt to use such a "red crossed" network
drive and the other system it not yet ready,
then the error message "the network path was not found"
will be displayed:

NT4 |

Windows 2000 |
