Check folder/file availability on mapped network drive

[DPR]

I want to check if a certain file on a mapped network drive is available on systems running WIN2K & WINXP.
All systems have a C:, D: & E: drive and a mapped drive G:
I want to test that file G:\test.txt is available for all systems

The test works fine on Win2K but I cannot select the mapped network drive (G on the WinXP systems ?

I use Hostmonitor 6.42C on my server and RMA 3.35 the clients

Can anyone help me out please ?

I think its bad idea to use mapped drives for monitoring. "Mapping" depends on user context.
I would recommend to use UNC test method and UNC path to shared resource, e.g. \\server1\resource2\test.txt

With the "UNC (availability/free space)" method I can only check for folders and not for files ?
This test would also solve my problem if there was a possibility to check for files on an UNC path

>>Could you please explain what exactly means "cannot select"?
When I used the "Folder/File availability" method. I click the button to Select folder or file and then you seen an icon with a / so you can browser all drive letters of the system.
On Win2K I can see my mapped drive, on WinXP I can't.

You may use UNC path with "Folder/File Availability" test. You just should setup the "Folder/File Availability" test and type the UNC path to the certain file into the "File or Folder Name" input box (e.g. \\server1\resource2\test.txt).
