    Ok, I seem to be doing something wrong with the syntax.
    Let's assume the following and tell me what I am doing
    wrong.

    username:really
    password:stupid
    domain:doh
    servername:printerserver
    printername:printer01

    I am entering the following with no luck:
    net use \\printerserver\printer01\IPC$
    stupid /user:doh\really /persistent:yes

    just throws back a sytax explanation for net use. I have
    tried many different combinations.

    thanks for the help
