NET USE /DELETE actually deletes files from server

T

tconley

I have a bunch of users that have folders on a server , in this case
\\batman\documents\username

I have a script that maps a network drive to that based on their
username, when the script runs I'm calling NET USE Z: /D or /DELETE to
disconnect any network drive on Z, but for some reason after trying
this a few times that files and the folder "username" are completely
gone off the server! Any ideas?

Its a win2k server and the script is being run on a winXP client.

I have never seen this happen. Can you reproduce it at will?

I use that same command in a number of login and program access scripts and
have never seen the behaviour you are seeing.
