Environment
Client for Open Enterprise Server (Novell Client) 2 SP4
Situation
When executing drive mapping statements in the login script, an error appears, such as:
The following drive mapping operation could not be completed. error code 8804
Resolution
Make the eDirectory object syntax drive map statement absolute by adding a leading dot. For example:
.OES-Server_DATA.Corp (note the leading dot)
instead of
OES-Server_DATA.Corp
Note that the current context can be set in the login script by using the "CONTEXT" command. See the Novell Login Scripts Guide.
Alternatively, change drive mapping syntax to the older "binary-style", such as:
OES-Server/Data:
Cause
The current context is set such that the drive mapping statements are incorrect relative to the current context.
