Hi,

   I am getting "system error 59" when I run "net use z:\\\\server\\share 
/user:user1 <password>" to access a samb shared drive in an openssh windows 
session where I use passwordless login with command "ssh -i <identity_file> 
user1@<server> " to login to the windows desktop running sshd.  I have been 
searching the mailing lists, but have not found any information on this 
specific issue.

   I am trying to run a batch script from a unix server to execute some 
commands on the windows desktop that need to access a shared drive.  I 
installed and configured samba3 on the unix server where the shared files 
are located.  I have installed and configured the most recent download of 
cygwin with the openssh option on the windows desktop.  Logged in as user1 
on the windows destktop, I can run the dos console or the cygwin shell and 
successfully map network drives usin the "net use" command above.   I am 
also successfully able to run the "net use" command on the windows client 
when I login using openssh as user1 and get prompted for the password (using 
command "ssh user1@<server>").  Therefore I know that I have correctly setup 
samba, cygwin and openssh for user1 to access the shared drive.  I then 
created keys using ssh-keygen for passwordless login for user1 on the 
desktop.   When I login to the desktop using openssh passwordless login for 
user1 with command "ssh -i <identity_file> user1@server",  I get "system 
error 59" when I run the same "net use" command above.  I cannot have any 
user prompts for the passwords in my script.  Does anyone know if is 
possible to use passwordless login from openssh and then map a network drive 
using samba to access the shared drive in the ssh session?    If so, any 
ideas on why this is not working.  If this will not work, does anyone know 
if this will work with SFU ( in place of samba) or any other software for 
sharing the drives?

Thanks for you help in this issue,
Terry
