I map a network drive from a PC (workstation) to another PC (server), that is always on.
When my workstation sleeps and comes out of sleep, I get this error message:
An error occurred while connecting [drive] to [share]. The local device name is already in use. This connection has not been restored.
I get one of those for each explorer window I had open pointing to the network drive.
If I go click the network drive in My Computer, type G: in explorer or really do anything to access the network drive, everything works great again.
How can I avoid this happening?
Both PC's are Windows 8.
Still an issue with Windows 10 1809 after reboots. I connect 4 shares to FreeNAS-11.1-U6 and an ubuntu 16.04 Samba share. Some shares fail to connect with above error. I can access the share typing the path into the address bar, though. – baloan – 2018-10-07T09:37:32.270
