Mapping Drives From DOS (NetWare)

Some users may prefer to map drives from DOS. The

DiscView Server Components allow DOS drive mapping by

providing some basic DOS utilities for viewing CD-ROM vol-

umes.

■ To map a CD to a drive letter using DOS:

1. Go to the DOS prompt.

2. Go to the \DISCVIEW\DOSUTIL directory.

3. Type DP VOLUME LIST <servername> and press

Enter to get the volume name.

4. Type MAP <drive_letter>:=<servername>

\<volumename>: and press Enter to map the drive.

For example: MAP G:=SERVER1\VOLUME1:

DiscView PRO SmartLaunch can automate the map-

ping process. Please refer to Chapter Five – DiscView

PRO SmartLaunch for more information.
