Mapping a drive using accelerate360 credentials
Note: If you have reset your accelerate360 password, any accelerate360 mapped drives should see the new password. If not, reboot the machine and try again.
Some thenewsgroup file shares are setup to use accelerate360 credentials to allow mapping. If a user has been given access to a thenewsgroup file share using their accelerate360 credentials, follow these instructions to map the drive. These instructions should also be used to map drives on servers that are on the accelerate360 domain.
