Hi Mike! Something is weird with this YG and email I may have to send

As a quick aside, I've been using os2 since the 90s and I used to work 
for SOlution Technology. That said
this box is ecs 1.14 I believe and was working fine until last week. The 
only change in the network is a new Dlink router. I can't believe that's 
the problem since even on the ecs box net use comes up empty.

i'm stumped...Leon

for example:

net use
There are no entries in the list.

net share
