Default script for mapping network drive?



Often I shut down and restart my win98se system as well as my win2000
system - both are connected via a router. I wind up having to map my
win2000 h/d's to my win98se system because if I check "reconnect at
logon", it causes problems when I reboot my win98se system while my
win2000 system is shut down. I would like to have a script that I
could run after booting my win98se system - I would only run it when I
know my win2000 system is up and running - just to save me a few
clicks. Is there a script that I could just click (with an
appropriate icon on the win98se desktop) and it would map the win2000
h/d)?
Thanks

Default Re: script for mapping network drive?

Don't really need a script, a batch or CMD file should do the trick:

Basically use the Net Use command.

Net Use K: \\[Machine name]\[share to be mapped].

For example I shared a folder named Pics on a machine named Ziggy2. I opened
notepad and typed the following and then saved the file as Map Pics.cmd

Net Use K: \\Ziggy2\Pics
