Unable to connect to Network Drive in Roaming
Hello,
I have set up netowork drive. When I am at office am able to connect to net work drive but when I try from home (taking VPN to office network) I am not able to access the network drive. Running on windows 7.
I get following error message,
An error occurred while reconnecting V: to \\xxxxxxx\xxxx\xxx\xx
Microsoft Windows Network: The network path was not found.
This connection has not been restored.
How can this be solved.

Do you have firewall permissions to access that location?
You can try using the fqdn of the client ( {clientname}.{domain name} ) to see if that works.

it's a unix server.
My task is, I'll have to validate a file to entries on the server for which I have mapped a drive (as mentioned above).
When ever am at office location I can flawlessly connect to it. But when connecting from home I need to logon to office VPN first. After connecting to VPN when I try to open it never opens. Also there is particualr server which when I try to access with hostname from home I cannot but when I try to access the same by IP I can. For eg there is a server with 2 instance say 'inst1' and 'inst2'. When connected from office everything works fine. but when I try from home I cannot load 'inst1' with hostname whereas I can load 'inst2' with hostname and IP.
Also when I try to access some specific URLs with hostname (when at home) they don't load. All this URLs which am talking are work related (intranet).
I guess there is some thing wrong with DNS resolution.

In my previous comment where I mentioned able to access 'inst1' with IP from browser am not able to ping successfully with IP nor hostname.
