When you map a Vibe folder and your Vibe server is configured with Windows Authentication, an error might occur saying that there’s been a problem with Windows Shell web services, and the process fails.
To fix this problem, modify the registry on each Windows 7 client computer, as instructed in an article on the Microsoft Support Page.
When mapping a Vibe folder over HTTPS, you must ensure that all Vibe server certificate requirements are met, as described in Section 7.1.2, Meeting Vibe Certificate Requirements on Windows 7.
