Environment This will happen in MS-DOS or FreeDOS typically but can happen whenever you use the NET USE command at a DOS level to attempt to map a network drive. Cause This is a problem is typically with hostname resolution. DOS does not allow an IP address to be mapped directly. It is limited to a hostname such as "server1" instead of "192.168.1.1". Resolution This error can show itself in many different environments and situations. The most common solutions are the following: Enter a valid entry in t

I want to access a shared directory on the Windows-PC from the DOS-machine. Best solution would be to assign a drive-letter to the shared directory and make that persistent. I've done this before we got new hardware, establishing that connection from the DOS-machine to a Windows XP computer worked just fine. Using Windows 7 now, it won't. Details The Windows-PC Running Windows 7 (Ultimate - or Professional, not sure right now) 64bit. http://superuser.com/questions/643239/lan-connection-dos-to-windows-7 There are two network cards in it, one for the logon via authentication server, internet and so on - and the second one only to build a connection to the DOS-Machine. There is a separate local user specified, with name and password. There is also a shared directory in C:\ with full acces rights to exactly that user. (That's exactly what i did when using XP) The DOS-machine It's exactly that - a machine. Not a PC. It's a CNC machine with a special control software and so on. This control software is running on DOS and the network connections are built up via DOS, too. I can't tell you which version of DOS - but scanning through the directorys i tend to say that this isn't some kind of "normal" DOS-version. Seems to be something "special" or "minimal", just to get the machine software running and providing basic things. Using the mentioned XP-computer a while ago, i could use the NET commands to establish a connection using a drive letter, the shared network path - and the specified userdate, name and password. That just worked. That so configured shared directory was visible and usable when running the machines control software - that's the goal of all this. Current situation Trying to build up the connection as i did before only results in the following error: Error 53: The computer specified in the network path cannot be located. Explanation: The server that you specified does not exist or has not been

What do you do for resolution in your network? To test, try net use \\ipaddress\directory instead of \\computername\directory.
