net use

Mapping a network drive

net use can be used to map a drive:

net use f: \\SERVERNAME\Foo

Additionally specify the user account with which to connect:

net use f: \\SERVERNAME\\Foo /user:domain\user.name

The user's password can be appended after the logon name:

net use f: \\SERVERNAME\\Foo /user:domain\user.name mySecret

After mapping a network drive, the mapped drive names seem to appear in the registry as subkeys under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Network.

The mapped drives can also be queried with wmic.exe:

c:\> wmic logicalDisk where driveType=4 get providerName, deviceId, description

net use f: /delete
