I have some win95 workstations that have a network drive mapped. (peer-peer networking)
The stations are set up to automatically log on using microsoft client. Trouble is, when they autologon, the network drive is not mapped. It shows up in explorer, but shows disconnected. If I log off of the station, then manually enter the username and pwd (same that autologon is using) then the net drive is fine

Perhaps run a batch file at startup (i.e. netuse x: \\computername\sharename with username and password following. Just a thought.
P.S. Check my context of command, its been awhile since i used it.

Why didn't I think of that...too darn simple, i suppose. I was also going to try tweakUI. I've been told that works. I had it on a bad floppy, though, so it'll have to wait for another day.

Let me know if netuse? net use? works for ya.
