drivemapadd problem number5

[thor918]

The thing is that I can't seem to give a reproducable code that gives away what's wrong, because the code works ok, and sometimes not...

when it don't work it gives error code 5 = Invalid remote share

the script is an UP script of openvpn. the script is executed when openvpn connection is attchived.

The script is excuted by a Run("script/AutoIt3 script/up.au3")

When I excute the code in the IDE, it seems to work every time....

$computer   = "10.8.0.1"
$timeout     = 250
$maxlogintry = 5

$count = 0
;Check if it is possible to connect to server
While $count < 70; ca 7 sekunders timeout
    $pcFound = Ping($computer, $timeout)
    if $pcFound then ExitLoop
        Sleep(100)
        $count += 1
WEnd

If $pcFound Then;Connection
    ;Mapping av nettverksstasjoner
        $username = 'ole'
        $password = 'Password2'
        $domain = 'seln.local'

        $Driveletter = DriveMapAdd("*", "\\win2003\felles", 0, $domain & "\" & $username, $password)
        MsgBox(4096, "Test", @error)

Else
    MsgBox (0, "Loginscript", "timeout. no contact with server")
EndIf

$Driveletter = DriveMapAdd("*", "\\win2003\felles", 0, $domain & "\" & $username, $password)

Im guessing it breaks on that line?

If so it may be exactly what the error is saying...maybe the machine you are trying to map to is off or unreachable from your network.

yes correct the error is cast when I map a nettworkdrive.

but I find it strange that sometimes it work, and sometimes it does not...

Hmm I guess your right,

seems my netbios name setup isn't as solid as I was expecting.

changed \\win2003 to my \\ip

and no error 5.

strangly win2003 name works everytime I ping
