What is Network Connect?
On large networks or on networks with different domains or workgroups it is quite problematic to find and connect a network share as a drive. A solution is to use shortcuts to the network locations or to remember the drive. These solutions have disadvantages over reconnecting the network share to a drive.
The Network Connect Tool in WinNc connects and disconnects predefined network shares very quickly and even allows you to connect or disconnect a group of shares. For each share, the following information is predefined:
- Readable name, i.e. 'My network connection'
- Network share, i.e. '\\Server\Share'
- User Name
- Password
- Group name, i.e. 'Company network'
