Folder Sharing

[neutec]

Hello All,
I am having trouble accessing a shared folder. On my Windows 2003 server I have shared a folder called "test folder". If I go to a client on the network and type \\domain\test folder it works fine, however when I try to map this folder using a batch files I can not. Im usng
net use R: \\domain\test folder. I was wondering if the problem is due to the space between test and folder.

Thanks in advance for any help

have you tried wrapping \\domain\test folder in quotation marks ?

Also, are you sure you don't mean \\server rather than \\domain? You would only use \\domain if you were using DFS AFAIK

gmail2 is right. You'd use \\server\share, not \\domain\share. Even if you were using DFS, you'd use \\domain\root\share

yes you are right, I mistakenly put domain instead of server and wrapping it in (") did the trick.
Thanks for your help
