OpenVPN mapping a drive

[Bradley Plett]

I really don't know if this is an OpenVPN issue, or a Vista issue, but
I can't map a drive. I can ping my server just fine, but when I try to
map a drive, I get "System error 53 has occurred. The network path was
not found.". I'm doing this in a command prompt with admin privilege.
I've tried turning the Vista firewall off, but that appears to have no
impact. This worked well under XP. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Brad.

Run secpol.msc
Go to: Local Policies > Security Options
Find “Network Security: LAN Manager authentication levelâ€

Change Setting from “Send NTLMv2 response onlyâ€
to
“Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiatedâ€

We finally figured out that this had nothing to do with OpenVPN and
was, in fact, due to a firewall setting. Apparently XP reverted to
port 139 when mapping a drive, but Vista needed port 445.

Hope that can help someone else!
