I have a server running Windows 2000 Professional that has 2 shares:
C:\ (Shared as Win2000)
C:\Our Music (Shared as Our Music)

Then on my Windows XP Professional client I map them as
Z: -> \\delta\Win2000
M: -> \\delta\Our Music

When I open the Z drive I am able to customize the Z:\Our Music\
folder as Music, which works fine enabeling all of the normal XP
extras for music folders. However when I look at the same folder via
the M: drive, the folders are no longer set to Music, but to Documents
removing all of the XP extras. Is there anyway to set the default
customization for a mapped folder? I would perfer to only allow access
to the required folder not the entire drive. (BTW: The same thing
happens with the C:\Our Photos folder.)

TIA
