Solved: Accessing Windows Shares
I have a person on our Windows network that is having problems accessing one share over the network. She can access all other shares just fine except this one named "CommunityFolder" . Is this a long file name issue or is there something else I need to look at? She is on OS 9.

Gee Rockn, I am a Mac guru and I still don't know the answer.

ANSWER: There is a 12 charachter limit that OS9 can handle for share names.

Solved by me.
