How can I view a network drive thru a Command Prompt? I have tryied just entering the address (ex: '\\exampleserver\examplefolder'), but this results with the message 'Access is denied'. The folder I am trying to view does require a username and password (which I have), yet I have no idea where and in what format I am supposed to enter it in. I would appreciate any suggestions. BTW, I know other methods of doing this, but I want to do it thru the Command prompt.

Thanks

You need to use the "net use x:" command to map to a network drive.
