Can anyone help me with a batch file to do the following
We have a computer here that is setup to scan on but it does not have
novell on it. I can manually map to the network drive but everytime you
log off with the generic account and log back on you have to remap to
the network drive. The people I work with have a lot of problems simply
mapping to the network drive and are constantly coming and asking me to
map it for them. Even though I wrote up a set by step procedure on how
to map to the drive. I thought a simple batch file could solve this
problem and save me a headache that is is becoming.
All I am doing to map to the drive is just going to tools map network
drive and fill out the information. I have to leave reconnect at log on
unchecked b/c if not then I will have to go log on for my user name
everytime.
Is there a way to simply write a batch file that will already have the
path in it and just prompt the user to enter there user name
Then prompt them to enter their password.
Once this is entered it will map to the drive.
I have been going through a bunch of topics on deja and have found some
information. I know I have to use net use but I am kind of lost.
Any help on this would be great.
Thanks
Chad

Re: Can anyone help me with a batch file to do the following
Okay I got this much written so far and it works but not how I would
like it to work.
net use r: /delete
net use r: \\ipaddress\name
net use [/USER:[uswappsacct\]username]
net use {devicename | *} [password | *] /HOME
Problem is i still have to type in uswappsacct\username to log in
instead of just typing in my user name and then password. Any help
would be great.

This sounds rather confusing. If I interpret your posts correctly
then you require a batch file that does the following:
- Prompt you for a user name
- Prompt you for a password
- Make a connection to some share, using the above credentials
Under Win2000/XP, the following will work:
@echo off
set /p name=Please enter your logon name:
if "%name%"=="" goto :eof
net use r: \\192.168.0.55\SomeShare /user:%name%
