List mapped network connections

[Methos]

Hi all, thanks for reading this. I've been working on this for a couple hours now and can't seem to find a solution.

Problem: I can't get a list of mapped connections with autoit/wmi.

for example, if you are using a command line, a simple 'net use' brings up a list of drives. For connections you have not specified a drive letter for, I want to find a way to diferentiate between them. Through WMI I can pull a list of drives - but only ones that have been mapped with a letter.

Has anyone else ran into this, or do you have any ideas for me?

Thanks in advance

moin, moin...!

why do you want to read it from wmi more easy is to read in the registry. Maybe you try it like this:

Code

For $i = 65 to 90 Step +1
    $Path = RegRead("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Network\" & Chr($i), "RemotePath")
    If $Path = "" Then
    
    Else
        MsgBox(0, "Mapped Sharedrive " & Chr($i), $Path)
    EndIf 
Next

i hope it helps...

...and this could be the way with wmi

$RemotePath = ""
$LocalName = ""
$strComputer = "."
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
$colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_NetworkConnection")
For $objItem In $colItems
    $LocalName = $objItem.LocalName
    $RemotePath = $objItem.RemotePath
    MsgBox(0, "Mapped Sharedrive " & $LocalName, $RemotePath)
Next

This is a great thread, but you might check the AutoIt docs for the DriveGetDrive function.
