I'm trying to connect to a remote WebDAV server by mapping it as a drive using NET USE command.
NET USE * <domain> /user:<username> <password>
Executing this command gives the following error:
System error 1244 has occurred.
The operation being requested was not performed because the user has not been authenticated.
But when I execute just
NET USE * <domain>
It asks for username and then password.
Enter the user name for <domain>:
Enter the password for <domain>:
Upon entering this I can now connect to the remote location and the drive is mapped.
What is causing this error? And how can I resolve it?
These commands will be automated, so I would like to pass the credentials as parameters instead of entering when prompted.
Credits to user Larryc for his answer on Server Fault site.
I wasn't including user domain name in the username parameter of the command. I included it and it worked.
NET USE * <domain> /user:<user_domain>\<username> <password>
