Can't use "net use"
I'm trying to mount a remote folder (on a WHS machine) as a drive in a windows 7 machine. Both computers are in the same homegroup and I can access the remote folders via the file browser.
So, I open up a DOS prompt and enter net use as normal:
Doesn't work. (It gives the same error if I use the IP)Code:C:\>net use x: \\WHS_Server System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found.
I ping it to make sure the two computers and 'see' each other.
C:\>ping -a WHS_Server
Seems all good.Code:Pinging WHS_Server [192.168.1.104] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.1.104: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.104: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.104: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.104: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Ping statistics for 192.168.1.104: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms
Now I have exhausted my windows networking skills.
Any suggestions?
TIA
