[GLLUG] Is there a Windows equivalent to /etc/fstab?

[Andy Lee]

Actually, this isn't for normal users, but only for processes running in
the background. Is there a way to put the credentials on the path? Would
something like \\user:password at server\share work?

I did find a bug where if you use the "AT" command in conjunction with
net use the mapping doesn't show up in lists, but is available to all
users on the machine. Not really how I want to get around the problem.

When you're talking about making shares available to all users on the 
machine, you're only referring to users who log in and not including 
things like scheduled tasks running in the background, correct?  Have 
you considered having using scripts on a PDC (primary domain controller)

to automatically mount each user's network shares for them on login? 
That is usually what people in the Windows world do (see "net use"
command):

Scheduled task can also map and unmap network drives when they need 
them.  Network drives are never persistent, they're always unmapped when

a user logs out.
