I dont understand this:

Quote

In the below example the computer would map the Z: drive to the network path //computer/folder.

net use z: \\[highlight]computer[/highlight]\folder

what would you put for "computer"?

Use the remote computer's name. If you right click on My Computer==>Properties==>Computer Name tab you'll get the name of your computer. Using the same method on the remote computer, you can get what to use in a net use command.

There are other ways to do this, but this keeps it simple.

What kind of network is this?

Good luck.  8-)

thanks for the help. I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by what kind of network it is?
