Hi Don and All, Well, I can't say that I understand all this, either. But, using the PK here is what I did to get to the SharedDocs folder on my PC; and, yes, grin, I'm sure it is probably the long and repetitive way around things. First, I went to the options/connectivity menu and turned wireless on, and told it to reconnect using existing configurations. Then, I pressed backspace and enter with w to get to the folder name prompt. Then, I hit the backspace to get to the drive list, and then spaced down to network and pressed enter. Then, at the network place prompt, I pressed the space bar to get to browse entire network and pressed enter. Then, at the network server prompt, I entered the name of the computer to which I wanted to connect and pressed enter. Then, at the network folder prompt, I hit the space bar and got the prompt of network server user name, so I entered my SBC user name and pressed enter. Then, at the password prompt, I entered my SBC password and pressed enter. I also told it to update the current logon information and then pressed e chord to exit the dialogue, but I then answered no to saving my network password on the device. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Bishop" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 21, 2005 8:41 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] 6.1 and network drives
Paul, Did you have to set up another login account on your machine? Just wondering what you did with the user name and password. I set up a separate account on my xp home machine, but sure can't log into it. Don On Mon, 21 Feb 2005 17:31:30 -0800, Paul Henrichsen wrote: Hi. When I tried typing in family into the domain name, the bn didn't like that. What I eventually did was to type in Paul into the server name. That is my computer's name. However, I think that family remained in the domain name. I never could get it to stay deleted. I did finally get things working and even opened a word document, spellchecked it a saved it back to my D drive. Pretty neat.
