Where do you suggest we do this -- at the command prompt in windows or in
DOS, when booting from the ghost floppy ?

It's clear to me that the share pemissions are not the same as the NTFS
permissions, but I think the share permissions (Domain Admins - Full,
Authenticated Users - Change) are more than adequate (since the mapping
always worked before it suddenly stopped working).

The boot floppy client has always been set to log on as domain
administrator.
