Simple Windows utility to mount network share

Simple Windows utility to mount network share I'm looking for a simple Windows utility which would ideally be able to be pre-configured with the UNC of a Windows share, and then on running, ask the user for his or her credentials and then mount that share to a predefined drive letter.

"Well, you can cobble together a simple batch file which might look a little like the following (untested, but should work):

@echo off
set /p user=User name:
net use x: \\server\share * ""/user:%user%""

net itself will ask for the password when * is given (and won't display it when entering). Above batch file asks for the user name with the normal prompt."
