You may experience errors when accessing an iSeries NetServer™ file share if the directory path you have specified does not exist in the iSeries integrated file system.
If you have specified a directory path for a file share, but the directory path does not exist on your iSeries server, then clients will experience an error. The directory path that you specify on the File Share General-Properties dialog box must exist on the iSeries server for clients to avoid an error.
