This is a video tutorial on how to Map network drive Via command line. We can map a network drive from windows command line using the net use command
Z = would be the drive letter added to your computer
SERVER = is the network computer name
Photos = is the shared folder on the computer named Photos
The above command maps the drive letter Z: to the network share \networkpcsharename. If the logged in user has credentials to access
this network share, the above command completes successfully without asking for username or password. Otherwise it will prompt for user name
