Drive mapping for text files and odbc
Posted: Wed Nov 10, 2004 1:19 pm
I'm trying to get an odbc connection for fox pro to work on our datastage server (win 2000), the drive is mapped using net use to another server in an nt domain, although all of the servers use novell as well, I can open it up and look at it without a problem through windows explorer, and using access I can even open the tables. Using Designer, I cannot open these odbc connections, so I decided to try accessing a file on the server and noticed that the mapped drive is not showing. Instead I am seeing only the drives that are mapped through the Novell login script, and nothing mapped after the fact through Windows. So I believe that this is where my odbc problem lies, and that understanding where the available drives for datastage come from may help my odbc problem. I have tried running the datastage service as both administrator on the datastage server as well as the domain administrator and have not been able to view the drives either way.
Does anyone know where datastage is getting the available drive info from?
Thanks in advance for any light anyone can shed on this.
