You may receive an error message “The name of the local device is already used” when you try to restore a network association connection to a shared network folder on a Windows XP client.

This problem can occur if you connect to the Windows XP client with a different connection type than the one you use to connect to the file server. If you have created the network drive on a local area network (LAN) using your current user data, the association information does not contain any user information. When you connect to the computer, the operating system only makes a partial connection for sharing and the network drive is considered used. Later, when you access the network drive, the connection is fully restored. read more
