I am fairly new to coding, but have built a few small things. One thing I figured out on my last project was how to run 2 simple commands normally run from a console, but from within a form application instead. Simply, the form had 2 buttons and clicking one caused ipconfig to run and the other ipconfig /all. It then posted the ip information coming from the command into another form I created as a message box. That is important because I am trying to do something similar and nothing is working now.
I have a form that has a spot for user name and a spot for password. On submit, I want it to essentially run the following:
NET USE F: \\ALPHA\CLIENTAPPS /user:domain\%username% %password% /persistent:no
NET USE O: \\ALPHA\USERS /user:domain\%username% %password% /persistent:no
NET USE S: \\ALPHA\COMPANY /user:domain\%username% %password% /persistent:no
Where %username% and %password% are captured from the form and domain will be our actual domain.
Using similar methods to the aforementioned ipconfig program that is working, this is what I came up with. However, when I click the Submit button, nothing happens, no errors, nor does it actually create the network share:
private void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string un = txtUsername.Text;
string pw = txtPassword.Text;
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo PR = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo("cmd", @" /c net use W: \\\\ALPHA\\CLIENTAPPS /user:acsdish\\" + un + " " + pw + "/persistent:no");
PR.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
PR.UseShellExecute = false;
PR.CreateNoWindow = true;
System.Diagnostics.Process StartPR = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
StartPR.StartInfo = PR;
StartPR.Start();
}
What am I missing here, or is there a better way? Thanks.
Mike
