Persisting a Network share drive to a letter

Hi,
One of our application server boxes (Windows 2003 Enterprise SP2) needs to
have a connection to a network file share as the applications running on
this box read files that are present in the file server.

When i login to the app server box and create a drive letter (e.g) X: and
map ito the network share \\myfileshare.domain.com\sharename. It is good.
When I logout and log back in using the same user id and password that was
used to create the network drive, i don't seem to have that drive connected
automatically.

I tried NET USE X: \\myfileshare.domain.com\sharename password /USER:userid
/PERSISTENT:YES and did not get the desired results.

The user account for this operation has local admin privileges as well.

What am i missing in this process and is there any other way to make this
happen?

Thanks in advance for your time and help,
VC
