how to connect on share with specific user in windows
Posted: April 7, 2009 Filed under: Apple & Mac, Mac, windows | Tags: Mac, share, user credentials, windows 4 CommentsI am mainly working on Mac. If you want to connect to some share and want to log in as specific user (i.e. to see not only shared folders for guest, but also shared folder for logged in users) you can click on button Connect As in Finder and you are done.
How to do this in windows ?
net use z: \\192.168.1.1 /user:username password
if you don’t write password command window pops up and you can eneter it there.
You can delete the drive mapping letter (“z:”) and everything is working also.

Btw. you mixed up slashes and backslashes, I guess:
Corrected:
net use z: \\192.168.1.1 /user:username password
I am wondering when you, *nix guys will finally learn when to use use slash vs. backslash !!! 🙂
Just noticed that in Google Reader, in RSS feed, the slashes are incorrect but if I look into your post, it’s correct.
I stored the screenshot to Evernote, as evidence to proof that I am blind or foolish ! 🙂
anyway I am running it from total commander

and it doesn’t matter how you put slashes. Before I often switch linux and windows and I often switch mac osx and windows so in totalcommander I ususally use back slashes like in linux without problems
Thanks. Works in W8 but cmd should be ran as Administrator.
