in the past, I used
"net use LocalDriveLetter \\remotecomputername\remoteDriveLetter$ password /user:username"
in winxp to login remotely and map the remote drive as a local one. When I try to access to a Vista workstation, I was told "Access is denied". I'm wondering if Vista doesn't support this command line, or need to change some security settings on Vista.
I need to login remotely to copy some files from the remote computer.
thank you for any info.
