At work everyone has a piece of a network drive. It is H:, no matter what workstation you log into. Everyone has their own H:. My H: is "username$ on networkname (networkidsuchandsuch). The data on everyones H: drive is separate form everyone elses.
We are not allowed to have an excessive amount of files on this drive because with so many users, the physical drive will fill up fast. Mostly everyone keeps their .pst file on it so they can access their email wherever they are. And some work related documents. Recently there was a purge of music and video files.
The question is: If I am logged into one machine, can I map my portable drive thru the H: drive so that I can access it from another workstation (I can access the H: drive from multiple workstations at the same time)?
Sorry I may not be using the right terminology. I'm not good at networking.
