SYMPTOMS
========

When you are using the Microsoft Client For NetWare Networks component, the
following login script fails to work correctly:

  map n:=sys:\public
  #n:syscon

This problem occurs for any such drive mapping in a login script. The Microsoft
Login Script Processor for NetWare (NWLSPROC) returns an error message stating
that the external program cannot be found.

CAUSE
=====

The script processor does not handle lowercase drive letters correctly in the
external program command ("#").

RESOLUTION
==========

To work around this problem, change the driver letter after the number sign (#)
to an uppercase letter.
