Mapping Method 1: Map via Windows Explorer    INTRO  1  2  3  3a  3b  4
	What to do	How to do it
A.	Lookup Computer Name	You'll need to know the computer host name to complete this part of the configuration. To look up the computer host name: Select Start -> Control Panel Double-click the Network control panel. Click the Identification tab. Write down the Computer Name. Click Cancel to close the Network control panel. Important: If the computer name is longer than 11 characters, check the AFS Troubleshooting guide and read the Windows Computer Name Maximum Character Length section.
B.	Determine Mapping Path	When you map the Q: drive via the AFS client, you'll substitute your own computer host name and an '-afs' qualifier for the 'proxy-afs' host name that is normally used with the plain mapping method. The way to tell NT that a mapped drive should go through the AFS client is to add '-afs' to the host name. For example, if my computer name is sd-terrapin, the path for a mapped drive that goes through the AFS client starts with \\sd-terrapin-afs In this example, instead of mapping the Q: drive to \\proxy-afs\desktop, we would map the Q: drive to \\sd-terrapin-afs\desktop Note: If the host name is longer than 11 characters, truncate it at 11 characters (see examples below). Mapping examples: Computer Name Map Q: to Path sd-terrapin \\sd-terrapin-afs\desktop minglewood \\minglewood-afs\desktop fennario \\fennario-afs\desktop vermicelli \\vermicelli-afs\desktop verylonghostname \\verylonghos-afs\desktop
C.	Map the Q: drive via AFS	Note: You can find the 'Map Network Drive' menu item in several locations. For these instructions, we'll use Windows Explorer. If the Q: drive is currently mapped to \\proxy-afs\desktop, you need to disconnect it. In Windows Explorer, pull down the Tools menu and select Disconnect Network Drive. Select the Q: drive in the list and then click the OK button. In Windows Explorer, pull down the Tools menu and select Map Network Drive. In the Map Network Drive window: In the Drive: field, select Q: In the Path: field, enter the AFS client path using your host name as discussed above. Make sure the Reconnect at Login option is checked. Click OK to map the Q: drive.
