Hi guys.

I have a server running Windows Server 2003 and have created a shared folder on the C drive as I386 which contains the installation files from Win XP.
I also have a client pc in which I'm trying to connect to the shared folder on the server; I've created a network boot disk and it initialises the network card and appears to be working OK. The network client I got from the NT4 CD - what dos commands do I use to connect to the server from the client computer ? would it be something along the lines of \\server01\c:\I386 ???????.

Thank you:confused: :confused:

C:\net use /?
The syntax of this command is:

NET USE
[devicename | *] [\\computername\sharename[\volume] [password | *]]
[/USER:[domainname\]username]
[/USER:[dotted domain name\]username]
[/USER:[username@dotted domain name]
[/SMARTCARD]
[/SAVECRED]
[[/DELETE] | [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]]

NET USE {devicename | *} [password | *] /HOME

NET USE [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]


So everything else being equal it should be NET USE \\server01\c:\I386 if it will allow for anonymous access, otherwise you'll need to provide a logon name and password
