SYMPTOMS
The following problems may occur with shared applications and drive
mappings:
- When you use MSOFFICE as a shared application, more than one drive may
be mapped to the MSAPPS and OFFICE shares.
- Shared applications do not use existing connections to the appropriate
shares. Drives mapped prior to going into Windows are not used and new
drives are mapped for each application launched.
- Not all of the connections are deleted after closing a shared
application. Some are deleted within three minutes but others remain
indefinitely.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.1. This problem has been corrected in Systems Management Server
version 1.2.
