i have a shared file/folder in samba. i would like to create a batch file that would connect a user automatic.

this is the scenario:

- i have a username and password accessing the shared file/folder.
- both username and password should be in batch file, no need to input it by the user.

example:
server name - opn
username - a
password - b
shared folder - Archive

any one would help me in creating a batch file based on the given example, the batch file would be used in mapping the shared folder (Archive) and no need to input the username (a) and password (b) in the server (opn)

the batch file would run in windows xp, windows 98 and windows 2000

Here is a Windows command that will map your samba share to a "DOS" drive letter - in this case "Z:".

i have tried the command but the error occurred. -

system error 1219 has occurred. multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again.

why this message appear, i was able to establish a connection with a manual browsing to the server with the same username and no error occurred. is there a limitation in a creating a connection in batch file? would you help me to have solution on this matter, i only need one username to access the server with in the same time

Sorry, I'm not a Windows guru. I can't help you with this error.

perhaps you need to access a share resource with a username and password only once so in the next commands, it can be just something like:

tnx a lot. it seems its working
