Can access folder on server but can't map to

I can access a folder (Cal) on our local server but cannot map to it using Win98 SE.

\\FA1\Company\Cal

Company is shared for Everyone.

I can map to Company but not Cal.

In 9x and NT4 that's by design. You can map to the root of a share, but not sub folders of shares. This issue was fixed in 2k, XP, and 2003 server, however because your client is 98, your stuck. The only option I can think of is to create another share at the Cal folder, making it a root share, or upgrade to 2k/XP.

ypu, right click the Cal folder, and share it is about your only option
