Re: [users@httpd] Apache 2.2, Windows Service, Mapped Network Drive

[Tony Guadagno <to...@guadagno.org>]

Hi,
  I do this exact thing on windows 2003.  I use autoexecnt to map the drive and then the alias will work.  One think I do notice is that it is a good idea to install the apache service with a service name down the alphabet.  If you leave the default service name (Apache2) then it does not give autoexecnt enough time to start before it does.
