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
