net use command

I need to connect to a share on a separate domain with different credentials which does not have the trust allowing the service user to connect. I am trying to run the command using RunAndWait:

net use \\servername.domain.com\share password /USER:domain\userid

This works if I run it from the command prompt but if I run it from 24x7 (even through the GUI), the connection is not produced. Is there any way of connecting to a share use crednetials within a job?

Thanks for the assistance.

Do you run it as a program type job or from a script job? If you do it from a JAL script, do you rember about special ASCII characters?

I am doing it from a script job. Which ASCII characters are special besides the quotes? Should I put the command in a variable instead?

Back-slash is an escape character indicating that the following character is special, e.g. \n, \r, \t, \\. Run your script in debugger or use the tracing feature to see what happens during the execution. Please see "Special ASCII characters" topic in the online help for more details.
