Hi,

Does someone know the proper UNC syntax for specifying username/password
credentials as part of the path specification?

I'd like to understand the syntax for win2000 or later and both local as
well as network accounts.

Thanks in advance!
Jim

Not sure what you mean.

net use x: \\server\share /user:whatever\username password

Note that this is clear text and doesn't belong in a batch file if you care
about security. What exactly is it you're trying to do?

Nope - from DOS command line as in:

dir \\server\share\

Thanks,
Jim

So you want to pass credentials along in a dir command? To what end? I don't
know that this is possible, but can't see what it would accomplish if it
were....
