2003 Standard - Cant disconnect old mapped drive

All,

I have an issue with a new clients network. They had me move a large shared
directory from an old server to an new server.

Old Server - Windows Server 2003 Standard SP2
New Server - Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard SP2

I used xcopy with all the switches and everything came across just fine. The
issue is they mapped to the old share as an "S" drive. I have already
unshared the old share. So obviously when you open My Computer it shows as
"Disconnected Network Drive". Problem is I can't get it to go away. If I
right click, disconnect it says "The network connection could not be found.
I also tried NET USE S: /DELETE /Y. That give me the same wonderful
error..except this time from a cmd prompt.

Any thoughts on how to remove this stray mapped drive so I can map the
clients to the new share?

Thanks!

Matt

All,

I found this command: net use /persistent:no. I ran that, rebooted and the
old drive was gone and the new one mapped fine from the login script.

Thanks Anyways and have a good weekend!

Matt
