Good morning,
I was hoping someone could help out with an issue I'm having. I am trying
to create a batch file that will map a Windows Server drive and save the
username/password credentials (after a reboot). I also want it to map the
drive without prompting the user for the credentials.
Currently I am using the following:
net use R: \\192.168.2.25\WindowsServer /savecred /persistent:yes
This will map the drive fine and keep it mapped after a reboot but it
prompts the user for the credentials which I don't like. I originally tried
the following and it mapped fine and automatically inputted the credentials
which we're looking for but would not save them after a reboot:
net use R: \\192.168.2.25\WindowsServer /user:username password
/persistent:yes
Does anyone have any ideas? Even if I have to use multiple commands for the
batch file it would be an option. I was hoping to user the /savecred switch
with the /user switch but that apparently is not allowed. I am currently
using an XP machine to do this. Thanks!
I couldn't find a way to do this either for one of my clients, so we wrote Autoshares Network Connection Manager
http://www.wieser-software.com/autoshares/
which saves the user credentials (encrypted) in the user's registry, and reconnects at login.
