That's not required. Samba defines the share requested by HOME and the client does not need to know what it is. I have a logon script that does just this: ## mount our stuff and synch time from server print LOGON "NET USE S: /HOME\r\n"; (this is part of a magic script that is created by perl, so if you distill that line down, it's the same one the original poster is using) So, I don't know what's wrong, but isn't there an error or something? - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer II |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHPyEamb+gadEcsb4RAsvnAJ9sjcp3Hwrt0k3pExyZrEKTV3WlqQCbBVI3 8Vqs2GliQ8LH0I5AxJPPrUM= =WRYo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
