server directory as download folder causes Type3 (5 posts)

  In the Download Preferences, when I select a folder on an NT 2000 server and click OK, Fetch 4.0.1 crashes with a Type3 error. Is selecting a server folder not allowed?

  Thank you,

  It should be fine to select a server folder, so thank you for this bug report. I will try to reproduce and fix it. What version of Mac OS are you running? Can you make an alias to that server folder in the Finder?

  Thanks,

  Jim,

  I am running MacOS 9.0 on a G4. I'll try creating an alias of the folder and select the alias.

  Thank you for your quick response.

  Jim,

  Creating an alias and selecting the alias also results in a Type 3 error.

  Thanks for trying that. It sounds like the problem is with the file server access software. I would report the problem to the server administrator. If that does not help I'd check MacWindows.com -- they cover issues with using Macs on Windows networks.

  Thanks,
