Whether I am using the File Explorer or Resco File Explorer 2003, I'm always asked for a domain when trying to map a drive or access a share on one of my computers on my home network. Well, on my home network I'm not running any PDC/BDC and when I try to leave the domain blank, the logon prompt stays on the screen not allowing me to get to my shared drive.

Any thoughts on this and how I can work around this problem without a domain?

Thanks in advance!

Try putting the name of the computer you're attempting to connect to in the domain box.

Thanks Bipolar... I did some more testing and was finally able to map drives. For those of you that have home networks without PDC/BDC's, this is what I did. When it asks you for your password, make sure that you just enter your username in the username field without the "\\systemname\." And for the domain, use the name of the system you are trying to map. This is what allowed me to map drives via the Axim. It's really cool...

Hope this helps... Have fun!!!!!
