We use a UNC (universal Naming Convention) to refer to our Novell files. So that does not depend on mapping. So I would use \\402fs1\data to refer to the data volume on the novell server. If I require to delete a file I would use ERASE \\402fs1\data\vfapps\data\myfile.dbf

You might try the UNC concept as that does not depend on mapping only that the person be logged in to the server.
