Permanent map network drive.

G

Guest

Hello.
I have a 2000 server logged in local way but the server is in a X domain. I
need to map a network drive permenently but with a user from a Y domain. I
use "reconect at logon" but when I restart the server, always ask me for the
Y domain user password. I need for this network drive an automatic logon for
one of the services.
How I could avoid this? There is a method to do this?
Thanks for your help.

The easiest way to do this would be to add a batch/CMD file to the All
Users\Startup group to make the connection when the server is logged on:

net use v: /d
net use v: \\servername\sharename sharepassword /USER:domainname\domainuser

Make the appropriate substitutions (drive letter, server/share name,
password and user name) above.

Thanks Richard.

I am not sure but I think that the problem is in the password. We need to
use special caracters in it, and in my password I have a "." and "/".
When I do net use in a CMD console, written the password between ", the map
goes fine but when I restart the server it says incorrect password.
I have tried to change the . and / for a + but the answer is the same.
Any other ideas?
Thanks
Rober

Sorry, no; if you insist on passwords with odd characters you're going to
have odd results.

Why do you believe you "need" to use these special characters. It
certainly isn't required the the domain. Please review the actual
requirements, not the "supposed" requirement. Big difference in "can
use" and "must use".
Thanks Richard.
