Module for hostconnections and shares on my LAN?

[Jakobud]

I am using ActivePerl on Win32 and I am having a hard time finding what module/command I need to use to logon to another host or server on my local network.

If I have this host: computerHost

and this share: my_share

I want to be able to specify a login and password and connect to that //host/share so I can manipulate or copy files or whatever.

I do NOT want the map the drive, necessarily, but the option to do that would be nice as well, if I wanted to.

This seems like the type of command/module that would be pretty important and I imagine there are probably commands in the default distribution but I am just missing it. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it!

First guess would be Win32::NetResource, but if that doesn't cut it, browse around the Windows-specific list. ActiveSstate on Win32 probably includes most of that list by default.
