mcslemon Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Hi, I need to connect to a Novell Server via CIFS on a WinPE 2.0 build. Using PENetCFG, the drive maps ok when the network service starts. Using the Net Use command the drive maps ok Using DriveMapAdd the server fails to connect. If I map to a Windows XP / 2003 box, it connects fine! I'd like to use Autoit to control this part of my process as I can have better control over any problems that should occur with the mapping. The command I'm using is DriveMapAdd("i:", "\\server\share", 0, "workgroup\username", "password") The error code I receive from @error is 1. Has anyone encountered problems with connecting to CIFS before? Cheers, Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mast3rpyr0 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Some things in autoit i hear dont work in all windows versions. If winPE is anythign like WinCE then it wont work at all. Have you had any success before using autoit with PE? My UDF's : _INetUpdateCheck() My Programs : GameLauncher vAlpha, InfoCrypt, WindowDesigner, ScreenCap, DailyRemindersPick3GeneratorBackupUtility!

Has anyone encountered problems with connecting to CIFS before? Actually I've run into other problems with DriveMapAdd as well. I've had to resort to using Net Use in my AutoIt scripts as a fallback once or twice. Func MapNoPass() Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & "net use " & $sDriveLetter & " " & $sMapPath & " /user:" & $sUser & " /persistent:no", "", @SW_HIDE) EndFunc ;==>MapNoPass Func MapWithPass() Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & "net use " & $sDriveLetter & " " & $sMapPath & " /user:" & $sUser & " /persistent:no" & " " & $sPassword, "", @SW_HIDE) EndFunc ;==>MapWithPass - MoChr(77)& Chr(97)& Chr(100)& Chr(101)& Chr(32)& Chr(121)& Chr(97)& Chr(32)& Chr(108)& Chr(111)& Chr(111)& Chr(107)-------I've told you 100,000 times not to exaggerate!-------Don't make me hit you with my cigarette hand...-------My scripts:Random Episode Selector, Keyboard MouseMover, CopyPath v2.1, SmartRename for XP,Window Tracer[sup]New![/sup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
