Mapping Netword Drives

[Guest]

I am trying to map network drives in my home network. I get the following
error message:

"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error
has occurred:
"Not enough server storage available to process this command."

I googled the last sentence and I discovered that many people have the
problem but nobody seems to have the cure. The most frequent suggestion is
to increase the size of the IRPStackSize value in the registry. This did not
work for me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The IRPStackSize change must be done on the computer that owns the
shared drive, not on the computer that's trying to map the network
drive.

Is that what you did?

Wow! I now know why my hairline has receded. I keep hitting my forehead
with the palm of my hand. What an idiot I am. Of course I should have
created the stack and increased the stack size on the computer with the
shared drives.

Thanks Steve. And thanks for taking the time out to help me.
