to access shared folders on the cmd line?

Hi, I'm trying to copy files to the shared folders on the command line. some research I found a few references to use the net use command to associate files with a virtual drive:

NET use z:
. host\y (where there is the shared folder)

or

NET use z:
. host\shared folders\y

However, the syntax is wrong, or this is the wrong approach entirely. pointers would be much appreciated

Thank you!

Either you use:

"NET use."
VMware-host\Shared files.

This will be the map a network drive that contains folders in it...

... or you use the deep link:

"NET use."
VMware-host\Shared Folders\vmware»

to directly map a shared folder as a network drive.

BTW: The best way to know what you need on the command line is to map the "Shared Folders" in law by clicking on it in Windows Explorer and then run "net use" to see how it has been mapped.

  • Vista can ping machine to another, but cannot access shared folders on the machine

    Hi experts,

    Recently, we have problems with some Vista machines to access shared folders on other Vista machines. This seems to happen after the automatic updates of windows.

    These 'problem' machines are able to ping other machines 'good' but is unable to connect to shared folders machines 'good '.

    The reverse works fine ('good' machines can ping and access 'problem' machines).

    When you connect to folders shared of these 'problem' to 'good' machines machines using \\machinename\folder or even \\machine_ip\folder, the error window "the network location cannot be reached" appears.

    'Problem' machines can do desktop connection remote for the machines 'good '.

    All machines have the parameters: -.

    Same workgroup

    Same domain - private network

    Network discovery on

    File sharing on

    Public folder sharing

    Password protected sharing

    I am not able to find a solution on the web site and microsoft.

    Re-install Vista on 1 machine of 'problem' and the problem goes away.

    The problem with reinstalling is subject to re-registration of certain software licenses which has no registration online (through applications for certificates).
    Is there a resolution without having to re - install Vista?

  • Cannot access shared folders on the home network.

    Until a few days ago, I had a successful network operation consisting of two Vista Home premium computers and two XP Home.  I have not had problems with opening files or folders before, but now I find I can access shared files and folders on the computer units XP vista, but cannot open the computers XP Vista of the units of the.  I get the following message:

    \\user-D5139A8DF2\desktop on IBM is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.  Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

    Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

    I checked the registry as suggested, computers are all on a home network with the same workgroup name.  One solution I found in the forums has to do with my anti-virus Norton N360, but as all my computers are using the same version of that I'm uncertain or not to change the settings.  It's very frustrating.  Can anyone offer a solution or suggestion, please?

  • Cannot map the shared folders to the drive letter in WIndows prompt

    I seem to have a problem with the shared folders in a Windows on Fusion 6 client. Turning on shared folders in the VM options creates the "VMWare shared folders" shortcut on my desktop, and I can open and view files shared host, as expected. However, it is not map the shared folders to drive Z: in Windows because I expect, and I can not also go to shared folders using the path "\\vmware-host\Shared records" (for example, only by typing in the address bar in a window of the Explorer). It is a problem, because I need a path that I can put scripts to refer to things in the shared folder.

    Also, if I access network in Explorer, vmware-host is there but trying to open it gives me the error "Windows cannot access \\vmware-host."

    I'm running 6 Fusion on OS X Mavericks, and the guest is Windows 8.1. My .vmx file contains the following lines which I think are related to shared folders:

    insulation. Tools.hgfs.Disable = "FALSE".

    hgfs.mapRootShare = 'TRUE '.

    hgfs.linkRootShare = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.present = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.enabled = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.readAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.writeAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.hostPath = ' / users/buck/projects.

    sharedFolder0.guestName = 'projects '.

    sharedFolder0.expiration = "never".

    sharedFolder.maxNum = '1 '.

    For me, the weirdest thing is that I can get for shared folders by using the shortcut on the desktop, but by typing the exact path and the shortcut points to in an Explorer window does not work!

    If anyone has any suggestions on how I could get this works normally, I would be very grateful - thank you!

    Have you tried to re - install vmware tools in your windows 8.1?

    I think you should activate windows network discovery if you want to browse vmware host in the network.

    You can enable this by

    Control Panel-> network and Internet-> Network and Sharing Center-> the advanced sharing settings

  • Does not access my shared folders on the computer windows 7 from my xp pro laptop

    I have an operating system windows 7 on my main pc and xp pro on my laptop. When I try to access the files on my main pc (windows 7) from my xp pro laptop wonder a user name and password. Yet when I do it the other way round I have full access to any password ect. I have set no password and tried my home group password but not yet all joy. I have 2 other laptops, both running windows 7 and no network problem between all windows systems 7. all computers are running norton firewall and are configered the same.

    Would love a fix that makes me NUTS!

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You do not use the homegroup unless you have all Windows 7 machines . Windows 7 network type should be 'Home' or 'Work', not 'public '. In sharing advanced:

    Discovery of plug in the network
    Open the files and printers sharing
    Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
    Plug the password protected sharing

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, turning on window file sharing and printer as the above will take care of that for you. In XP, you can run the Network Setup Wizard or just enable file sharing / print in the Windows XP firewall exceptions. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    XP - set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) -http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

    D. Si one or more of the computers on your network are XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

    E. create share as you wish. In Windows 7 I usually share the Desktop of the user and the Public directory.

    F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but that is beyond the scope of this answer.

    Thanks in advance.

    It is actually a rather interesting problem. I did research I should have done before I came here and found that iCloud Drive is accessible here:

    ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents

    What is interesting is that the many, many interesting things found in this directory when you reveal all the files through ls - al, is that custom directories seem to appear. Even more interesting, in the Finder, select go > go to folder... and that type path and it does not recognize the path. Type ~/Library/, and then of course that's fine and see you the directory of Documents Mobile...

  • E1000 wireless. Sharing folders on the network

    Hello

    Until yesterday my two PC can share files/folders.

    Then everything stopped.

    What is an adjustment to this router?

    Thank you.

    This is the first time I had this problem.
    But I guess that's why the first FAQ RCN starts with, 'How to reset Cable Modem'.
    A few months ago, I went to the Internet of the MRC.  In the process of the MRC gave me a new CISCO/Linksys router and an ARRIS TM602G modem.

    Years my Linux PC has successfully shared files/folders with my Windows 7 PC.  And my Windows 7 PC the files/folders shared with my Linux system.  I use samba.  A few weeks ago, I bought a WD TV Live Media Player to Watch Streaming videos from my computer on my TV.  It worked, too.  The WD TV Live Media Player Streaming has been able to browse shared folders on my Windows 7 PC and Linux.

    Two days ago my WD external drive, which was attached to my Linux box is no longer in effect.
    Then, I rebooted the Linux machine with the connected external hard drive.
    But my Linux PC did not start.
    Anyway, I don't know why my PC wouldn't start simply because a broken external drive has been connected via USB.
    So, I disconnected the external drive of the computer and restarted Linux.

    Then, I joined the WD external drive to my PC Windows 7 to try to run the diagnostics from WD of Windows.  But, the WD external drive was not recognized by Windows 7, so I rebooted the PC Windows 7.  Unfortunately, Windows 7 PC will not start with the connected external WD drive.  Once, I unplugged the external box WD Drive Windows 7 started very well.

    But, after starting, I realized file sharing between my Linux box, Windows 7 and WD TV Live Streaming Media Player stopped.
    My Linux box could still ping 7 box and vice versa.  And both could navigate on the Internet.
    But, neither able to browse shared files/folders more.  And the WD TV Live Streaming Media Player lost the ability to connect to a machine.

    So, these last two days I tried to understand where my configurations samba got screwed upward.
    I tried different routers and went crazy in the process.

    I knew that nothing had changed on my PC.  But, simply because I assumed that nothing has changed does not mean that I'm right.

    Finally, after I got back from work, I spent 3 hours keeps my troubleshooting and decided to browse the MRC Web site.  The first FAQ was titled 'How to reset Cable Modem' and I thought, 'couldn't hurt.  Thus, after the reset of the modem everything works.

    Thank you for your help.

  • How to activate the shared folders in the VMware tools

  • Call the cmd line in VB to JS (Some Indesign autour :))

    Hi all

    I called a shell script in applescript once but I cannot get it to work in VB. I said that I don't know a thing in VB so all I tried was copy and paste the code.

    I have to launch a command window to transfer files (or at least set up a line of cmd, the helpdesk will give me). This call will come at the end of a writing of indesign (here go us).

    My intention is to use doScript and run applescript or vb depending on the system. May biggest concern is the call of the cmd from windows with VB.

    Any ideas?

    TIA Loïc

    oShell.run \"cmd /K CD C:\ & Dir\"\
    Set oShell = Nothing";
    
    app.doScript(scpt, ScriptLanguage.visualBasic);
