    Im trying to use imagex on a VM of windows 7 to capture it in its current oobe state. But that first involved telling imagex booted in WinPE where to put the img. I have a network drive on another VM of windows server 2008 r2 where i wish to copy it to, so after i booted up with winpe on the vm i want to image i type:

    the default line --> (X:\windows\system32>) (then my command)

    so appears as: X:\windows\system32>net use h: \\VM-SER2008R2\Windows Files /u:VM-SER2008R2\Administrator

    so am telling it to use my network drive and put it in my windows files folder logging in with the admin account, but then it comes and tells me:

    System error 86 has occured, The specified network password is not correct

    But it hasnt even asked for my password yet, do i have to enter it as another command on the end of the above string? Anyone know what to do?

    Ive tried disabling firewalls, added a LmCompatibilityLevel 1 dword into the registry with no luck.

    I tried adding that in and following that guide but it still says the same thing.

    Figured it out

    This was the final correct command:

    Code:
    net use h: \\VM-SER2008R2\Share Password /u:VM-SER2008R2\Administrator
    
    the password had to be after the sharename rather than the user
