Hi

 

I have a windows 7 machine, which is dedicated to run SABnzbd, sickbeard and CouchPotato.

 

Now, manually, i can successfully map the network drives (unRAID shares). 

 

However, I want to automate it, so whenever the machine shuts down or reboots, it should automatically mount the drives because SAB depends on those network drives.

 

The network should be up before trying to mount the network drives to avoid any errors.

If i can get this to work, then I can put a delay start of SAB and sickbeard and any other programs.

Any guide or reference to a good tutorial?

 

thanks guys

I used this link to delay logging into my network drives by 30 seconds: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/delay-mounting-network-drive-at-boot/e25538d4-6f85-442c-ac43-3f8ba2e9bf75

i use the two reg settings:

 

regsetting: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon "GpNetworkStartTimeoutPolicyValue"=dword:00000019

regsetting: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters "DisableDHCPMediaSense"=dword:00000001
