To Map a Network Drive Using a UNC Name on Windows 95

On Windows 95, you can specify the alias for a network resource only if it already exists. If you have connected to this resource before, the Solstice network has created and stored an alias for it. If you are not sure whether the alias exists, use Explorer or My Computer to browse the network.

1. Click the Start button, point to Programs, and then click Windows Explorer.

2. From the Tools menu, click Map Network Drive.

   The Map Network Drive dialog box opens.

3. In the Path text entry box, type the tilde (~) character followed by the alias. For example:

   \\~spooky\house
