[RESOLVED] How do you Map to a NT share in a Netware login Script

[JCShack]

I am trying to figure out if mapping a NT Share in a Netware login script is even possible. Please let me know and tell me what needs to be done so this can happen.

I'm not at all into NT, but I do know that you can call a command in a Novell login script by preceeding it with # like this:

#\\id4\sys\public\nal.exe

try:

# map <follow with correct MS map functions>
or create a batch file that does you mappings and call it from within your script

# mappings.bat

As long as you are logged into the NT domain BEFORE you log into the NDS tree, you can use the NET USE command in a login script by using the # before the command. If you're just attaching to workgroup resources, you can log into the NDS tree first.

To use a network resource in a workgroup or domain from a login script, enter the following line into the login script:

#net use g: \\server\sharename

Where G is the drive letter you are mapping, server is the name of the server or workstation sharing the resource, and sharename is the name of the shared resource.

This does work. I've used it at several clients. Hope this helps.
