Re: Problems with mapping share to NAS

What you could do as a kludge is change the share to password security (rather than user) and have a single line cmd file with :
net use T: //NAS/General Password
Then add this file to your start-up group.
This is exactly what I did to get this working, I created a .bat file with a line in it for each share and put it in the 'Startup' directory.

Thanks very much for this

Just in case anybody else needs it, the syntax to mount a share is as follows:

Where:

Share name = 'General'
NAS name = 'Storage'
Username = 'uName' (username is specific to the NAS)
Password = 'pWord'
Mapped Drive Letter = T:

Code:
NET USE T: \\Storage\General /USER:Storage\uName pWord
