1. NormalUser (read only permission) 
2. SuperUser (Full permission)

lets Map X drive for normal user

net use x: /delete /y >nul
net use x: "\\192.168.5.242\share\myfiles" /persistent:yes

lets Map Y drive for super user

net use y: /delete /y >nul
net use y: "\\192.168.5.242\share\myfiles" /user:superuser mypassword /persistent:yes 

output Error:

System error 1219 has occurred. Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again.

How to map the same share folder with different credential.?


Solution

  • You can map \\192.168.5.242\share\myfiles folder with 2 different credential in Windows with following method.

    Map X drive for normal user with IP Address of Server

    net use x: /delete /y >nul
    net use x: "\\192.168.5.242\share\myfiles" /persistent:yes 
    

    Map Y drive for super user with server name

    net use y: /delete /y >nul
    net use y: "\\server-name\share\myfiles" /user:superuser mypassword /persistent:yes
    

    X Drive will be read only and Y Drive will be full permission drive.
