n3DrivePath and Mapping to Root

Keywords:  n3drivepath

Question:

I map a drive in the System Login Script (NET$LOG.DAT) as follows:

	MAP Q:=SYS:\PUBLIC

When I execute the n3DrivePath() function, it only returns the \\SERVER\VOLUME\ (as follows) (and not the nested directory):

	\\TEST_SERVER\SYS\

Can you provide some assistance in this matter?

Answer:

 
	MAP Q:=SYS:\PUBLIC

This is really:

	MAP Q:=SYS:
		CD Q:\PUBLIC

It's mapped at the highest possible level, and then does a DirChange down to the lower level.

If you do a MAPROOT then I think you will get what you are expecting. This return the directory.
