Why do you use a drive mapping? Can you not use the \\IPADDRES\sharename notation?
-----Original Message----- From: George Abraham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 11, 2005 15:02 To: CF-Talk Subject: drive mapping for CF to use Hi all, CF 5 (sigh!!) on a Win 2003 Server box with IIS. The web application needs to access a drive that has to be mapped through the network from a different server using its IP address. Now mapping a drive is easy enough using say 'net use' or even doing it via the Windows 'Map Network drive...' utility. However the account it maps the drive under has to be the same as the account CF runs under, obviously. How do I ensure that this drive is mapped everytime the server is rebooted so that even though CF might start as a service before the drive is mapped, it will see the drive as mapped? I can use scheduled tasks to automate it, I guess. Sorry if this is a bit confusing.
