Re: Windows 2000 client can't map network drive on windows server 2003



the local username and/or password on the 2000 workstation that is used is
different from both the xp pro local user and domain user; this would
explain it.

for example, let's say there is domain user account administrator with
password of admin
on the xp machine, the local administrator account has password of admin
on the 2000 machine, the local administrator account has password of msft

when the batch file runs it uses the current credentials.
for this example:
if you logon to the domain as administrator, and run it, it works, because
it is using current domain credentials
if you logon to the local xp machine as administrator and run it, it works
because it has the same password of admin
if you logon to the local 2000 machine as administrator and run it, it fails
because the password is different; it tries to authenticate using
administrator with password of msft, which will fail, prompting with
something like "the username and password is invalid for..."
manually using the net use command specifically using the
/user:domain\administrator admin statement will work correctly
then if use the net use statement again, with a different username/password
will generate system error 1219 as you cannot create two connections to the
same server at the same time using two different sets of credentials

does this help?
