Net.exe implements functions like starting and stopping services and mapping network shares to drive letters.

Todo

  • Use resources for strings, for localization (./)

Services

  • Need to write a dummy service that can respond to start and stop commands

Mapped drives

I'd like to create the drive letter in ~/.wine/dosdevices and mount the network share to it.

How to mount in userspace without becoming root? I'd love to hear some ideas. - Tim Schwartz

On most distributions  smbmount '\\foo\bar' /path/to/mount/dir  should work for normal users.

Here on ubuntu running smbmnt produces 'smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts (1000,1000)'. - Tim Schwartz

Yes, that is the trick. (If it is anything like other debian packages it asks if it should be suid root during debconf.) You can't mount anything as a normal user. -- JanZerebecki
