Remote Mapping....

Hi,
I'm not sure that I understand your question!
If you want, that a client having a map to a network drive you can use a login script (batch) with "net use X: \\ComputerName\ShareName" command.
Save this batch in NETLOGON share on your PDC & BDC and in User Manager user profile\Logon script name enter the name of this batch.

sounds like you need to map it only on your system or for a temporary period of time.

The above is correct partially - I say partially because if the machine you wish to map to is an NT box, you will have to be aware of what permissions that share from the PC is set with.

I would recommend the following from the cmd prompt.

net use x: \\pc\share /user:domain\userid

PC - is PC with share
Share - is sharename
domain - is network domain (if your domain id was not given rights on this PC, you can use the local machine's name as the domain name - used in conjunction with a local machine user-id)
userid - is domain id (if your domain id was not given rights on this PC, you can use a local machine user-id that has been given the rights in conjunction with the local machine name).

This should work. Note that if you are running this command from an XP box, make sure it's the 'PRO' version.

If you are running it from a 95/98 box, the other system MUST create a local account and password that matches your domain account and password.

Good luck!
