Map network drive for user via ASP.NET

[=?Utf-8?B?QnJpYW4gTmljaG9sc29u?=]

Hello,

I'm trying to create an admin page that can run miscellaneous scripts for
our IT department. Currently, I'm trying to create a script that can map a
network drive for a user (e.g. a form where I can input \\path\folder, drive
letter, and domain\user). Is this possible? If so, can someone point me in
the right direction?

Thank you,
Brian Nicholson

first - this is not an ASPx group, it is a classic ASP group

ASPx is here:

microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.aspnet

second- your question is about scripting, not ASP or ASPx so you may want to post it here:

microsoft.publi c.scripting.vbs cript

I doubt this will be possible without using a .hta page with javascript. You
will probably have better success doing this via the network login scripts.
Post to .scripting.vbsc ript for help with that. This is not really an
ASP/ASP.Net issue.

Having said that:
There was no way for you to know it (except maybe by browsing through some
of the previous questions in this newsgroup before posting yours - always a
recommended practice) , but this is a classic (COM-based) asp newsgroup.
ASP.Net bears very little resemblance to classic ASP so, while you may be
lucky enough to find a dotnet-knowledgeable person here who can answer your
question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your question to a
group where those dotnet-knowledgeable people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.aspnet or the forums at www.asp.net.

Thanks for the advice -- I've reposted my question in the more relevant
newsgroup.
