if you run 'net use \\servername\sharename' from a commandline and then type 'echo %errorlevel% you will see that a value is returned. 0 = share is ok, 2 = share is not ok.

if you use these values in your check within serversalive (i.e. set the external command so that if value returned =2 then raise an alert.

Is there a way I can check the availability of a shared resource on server? I normally do this manually by simply using the command "net view \\myserver".

Thanks
