Trying to run a login script from a NT 4.0 server using a Windows 2000 client. Get a system error 67 on every net use command. Sample: net use G: \\server\G:
This same command works fine on a Win95 client. Everything I have read on Tech Republic says it should work. We need to resolve this before we can roll out W2K. Can you help?

The line:

net use G: \\server\G:

should not have a ":" at the end of it. It sould be:

net use g: \\server\folder

capitalization does not matter, but you cannot have a colon in a folder name.

net use G: \\server\G

The fact is the folder name is G: on the NT server. Why does it work with the colon ex: net use G: \\server\G: using a win95 client? Using your suggestion, I still get the same error, system error 67 network name cannot be found.

The solution was to change the folder name to match the default share name on the NT server.
Ex: net use H: \\SERVER\H$

All drives mapped correctly.
