Where can I find more information about "Net Use"? I see it used in running scripts but I can't find one book or article on how this is used. I would like to learn as much as possible about this so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

I just do a NET USE /?. That pretty much tells me everything. the NET command is actually a very powerful command which allows you to do at the dos prompt, anything you can do in network neighborhood. Type in NET /? and you will see all the commands available at the level. Then if you type in NET /? then you will see all of the options for that particular command. You can go here for an explination of the NET USE options. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/using/productdoc/en/default.asp?url=/WINDOWSXP/home/using/productdoc/en/net_use.asp. For an explination of all NET commands, you can go here. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/using/productdoc/en/default.asp?url=/WINDOWSXP/home/using/productdoc/en/net_subcmds.asp

Hope this helps.

You get a more complete help list when from a Command Prompt, you do:
NET HELP USE

That will list all switches and what each switch does.

hope this helps
