I didnt't have a problem mapping it in the old beta, but with the new RC I get the error message 'wrong user name and password' (I 'm 100% sure the username and pass is correct). It is a network drive on my university and I connect by using a domain. The really strange thing is that I can access some network drives, but not all.I have no idea why I can't access, any ideas?---- UPDATED!

MVP ,where are you??Marcus

The security is different on Windows 7. You can try having the same credentials across the board to ease the process.

Change your usernames and passwords on all machines so they are the same.

Can you disable the following policy settings for your Windows 7 systems?Start gpedit.msc and browse to Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Local Policies | Security OptionsNow disable:- Domain member: Digitally encrypt or ssign secure channel data (always)- Domain Member: Require strong (Windows 2000 or later) session key Ray
