The SUBST command is not working correctly in Windows 2000.

A. A bug exists in Windows 2000 which will not be fixed beforeits Release To Manufacturing. Normally you can subst a drive letter for afolder, be it local or remote. If you subst a drive letter for a remote folder,e.g.:

C:> subst h: \titanichomesavillj

When you try and access H: you get error:

The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

To work around the problem use net use instead, e.g.

C:> net use h: \titanichomesavillj
