hi,I try to connect from windows PE 3.0 to a network share with the commandnet use Y: //host/share \user:UserName, but i get an access denied error "System 5 error occured" I try to troubleshoot this error ....Any help much appreciated.

Are any Windows 7 machines involved? This forum is for Windows 7 issues.

Of course Windows 7 is involved. I'm following an example in the Microsoft 70-680 Exam book. I'm covering all of Windows 7 distribution scenarious, and this one inparticulous involves setting up a distributable image from a shared network drive. I know Windows PE is NOT Windows 7, but since it is an integral part of the distribution process, I thought this would be the natural place to get an answer. No? I also know that I can put the image onto the network in one of several other ways, but why not use the method as described. It doesn't work! I'm guessing that a firewall in PE is responsible, but I'm still no closer to the answer. Thanks for your help

Make sure you are hard wired to the lan - not wireless!!!!prompt>net use k: \\<computer name>\<share name> <password> /user:<user name>
