When I visit \\computername\folder in My Computer, the folder loads
and I can read / write to it without any problems what-so-ever.
When, however, I try to do "net use z: \\computername\folder", I find
that I can't. I get prompted for login info, which I provide, and
then I get this error:
System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.
The fact that I have to login, in the first place, strikes me as
fairly odd since, as I observed, earlier, I don't have to login when
doing it from My Computer...
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?
It's been suggested to me that the first method may rely on some sort
of password caching. I'm very confident that it does not. I only
have one user on this computer and that user does not have a
password. If, however, in the unlikely event it were password
caching, how would I clear this hypothetical password cache?
