php net use error

[raphael75]

I have this code to map two network drives:

<?php
$cmd = 'net use t: \\comp1\folder /u:dom\user pwd';
$cmd .= 'net use u: \\comp2\folder /u:dom\user pwd';

exec($cmd, $out, $ret);
?>

When exec() runs I get this:

 

System error 67 has occurred.

The network name cannot be found.

 

and $ret echos 2

 

I've done some research but I can't figure out what is causing System error 67. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Figured it out - gotta escape the double \'s

<?php
$cmd = 'net use t: \\\\comp1\folder /u:dom\user pwd';
$cmd .= 'net use u: \\\\comp2\folder /u:dom\user pwd';

exec($cmd, $out, $ret);
?>
