    PM CDU Flightplan question

    Hi,

    Getting to grips with with the CDU but I'm having problems!
    I have the Flight Plan folder on my FS pc shared as fsplans as per the instructions but when I go on the Load/Save FLPN page I can see a folder showing as \\fspc\fs9 which is my main FS Pc FS2004 folder, also shared. When I click the Load FS key it just keeps loading a default Panc flight and when I key the file name both with or without the .pln extension nothing happens

    Anyone any ideas where I am going wrong?
    Cheers
    Mike

    Thanks

    Sorry, I don't know. It's just the sharing you are doing wrong. You need to give read / write access to all users.
    The special things are ever depending of your system, how secure you set your OS.

    It's just because everyone thinks it has to do with PM software but actually it's only depending on the OS / security / sharing.
    I don't have any problems by using Vista 32 / WIN XP Pro and WIN 2000 Pro in my Network for FS & PM. It depends only on the way you setup your OS and then the Network, nothing more.

    Hello,

    I´ve also no problems here to load FSPlans to the CDU. I use Vista32 and XP SP2 on my different PC´s.

    One thing I do is to map the shared Folder FSPLANS to the CDU computer, so the folder reconnects at every time i start the computer.
