[cisco-voip] Mounting a Shared Folder on Another Computer with a .bat File

[Matthew Ballard]

What user are you running the script as?  When you double click on the
script, it is running as the user you are logged in as, but if you run
it through a scheduled task, it runs as a different user.  That
difference is usually the problem when running manually works but a
scheduled task doesn't.

Thanks Go0se and Lelio.  The net use command works as a .bat file when I
double-click on it but for some strange reason it won't execute as a
scheduled task.  Returns a 0x0 code as if it were successful but a net
use command shows no volumes.  It's a pretty simple setup:

Net use \\10.10.7.22\UnityBackup /USER:adminstrator Tr1b501

That's it.  Again, works flawlessly when I double-click on the batch
file but set it as a scheduled task and it won't run - whether I right
click on it and run or set a time and let that time come and go.  I've
seen this before with setting .bat files as scheduled tasks and have
never been able to figure out what the issue is.  I have a lot of other
.bat files running as scheduled tasks and they work without issue.
There are just certain ones that won't.

Thank You...

Do any of you geniuses know if there is a utility or CLI command that
will
mount a shared folder on one Windows computer on another Windows
computer.
I have some backup routines I want to run on Call Manager, etc., to
other
destinations but since it's infrequent, the shared folder sometimes
disconnects.  If there is a way to do it through a .bat file, I could
then
set that as a scheduled task.

Thank You...
