Drive Mappings

Your Novell drives should currently be as follows:

H: yourid on ‘Fsunw11\your division’ 

J: your departments name

Any other drive mappings you see in My Computer should be local drives (C: drive, D:, E: - DVD drives, etc.) or non-Novell servers, like FSUWEBNT1, etc., only.

Delete any other drive mappings in My Computer to any Novell locations not listed at right.
