ReadyNAS 3312 - Drive map error 'The password is invalid for ...'

[GBHamish]

Hi,

My ReadyNAS1 is configured to work with my AD domain. I have created two shares. One named 'Users' and another named 'Database'. Both have identical network access and file access settings. When I map a drive to \\ReadyNAS1\Users everyting is fine. When I try to map a drive to \\ReadyNAS1\Database, I get a message that the password is invalid and I am prompted to enter a username and a password.

To map the drive I use the command: NET USE V: \ReadyNas1\Database /Y

The idea is that I can write unattended backups from my databases to the share. This is now impossible. What do I need to do to remedy this situation ?

Regards,

Try using

net use * /delete

net use V: \\ReadyNas1\Database /user:Database database-user-password

I have decided to move away from scripts and use the group policy editor. Perhaps more appropriate.
