Mapping Script, help plz ??

Joey

I'm trying to find a login script to map a folder on the destination
server, can anyone help please ??

(1) The application desktop is WindowsXP Pro and the user logs in say
as SAM with Workgroup - Workgroup and no password. He needs access and
mapped to one folder on the Windows 2003 Server.

(2) The Windows 2003 Server is in the ABC Domain. The user SAM does
not have an account, but a dummy account has been set up with the proper
permissions. Say this account is DUMMY and the password is SECRET. The
folder that needs to be mapped as "O" on the client machine say is
\\folder\one which resides on the server.

What would be the proper script to put on the XP machine to login into
the server and map this drive locally ? Help please !!!

net use O: \\servername\folder\one SECRET /user:ABC\DUMMY

I'm going from memory, it's Sunday evening, and I'm tired. Check out the
"net use" command in Help and Support on the Start menu to be sure I've got
the right syntax.

Kerry,

Thanks very much for the reply. Seems like I've already tried this and
got the reply back "Server not found error". I could ping the server
with no problem. I'll give it another try on Tuesday in that format.
