In Windows you can map a network or local disk directory to a letter drive. I have found that I needed to do this recently because Windows doesn’t handle well directory names with spaces in them, even though the recommended folder for applications is C:\\Program Files! When writing scripts that reference a directory path with a space you need to either escape the black space, quote the path, or map a letter drive to the application path.<\/p>\n
To map or mount a letter drive to a network resources you can use the following command.<\/p>\n
\nnet use z: \\\\\\\\MY-SERVER\\\\PATH\\\\TO\\\\MAP\n<\/pre>\nWhen the resource to map in your local disk drive you can use the following command.<\/p>\n
\nsubst z: c:\\\\PATH\\\\TO\\\\MAP\n<\/pre>\nTechnorati Tags: windows<\/a>, tips<\/a>, tools<\/a>, cmd<\/a>, batch<\/a>, script<\/a>, drive<\/a>, mount<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
