If you're using a 'Doze box, and you want to use PHP functions like rename(), then IIRC the only real option that you have is to do something like: system("net use m: \\BORG\SHARE PASSWORD /user:DOMAIN\USER"); system("net use n: \\MACHINE\SHARE2 PASSWORD2 /user:DOMAIN2\USER2"); rename("n:/path/to/file","m:/path/to/otherfile"); /* more stuff */ system("net use n: \\MACHINE\SHARE2 /delete"); // equivalent of "umount //machine/share2" However, there may be a better/easier/more elegant way to do these things.
