BizzDev NetUse
http://www.bizzdev.com/en/downloads/netuse/
As we move towards wireless Pocket PCs, finding the best network client become paramount. While the File Explorer in 2002 has some networking capabilities, it's not the easiest thing to use. BizzDev NetUse, designed for the Pocket PC 2002, looks like a big step towards a more user-friendly network client.
� Connect (through easy domain browsing) and disconnect mapped folders � Show mapped folders as storage card folders to other applications � Set the default network domain � Delete saved network password

Pass Through

Can you use it to get to a file share via the cradle and AS or the pass through connection?

Now all we need is to be able to open/run files from a network share.

I've actually installed it but haven't tried it yet. I didn't see it mentioned as part of the software so I figured it wasn't included. I'm going to try it now and see what happens.

Jason,
You might want to update the description on the main page stating that this app is only compatible with PPC 2002.
Thanks,
Keith W. Sheehan

I just tried this out, and there are a few problems.
1. Basically all it does it allow you to map different drives simultaneously; once you select one it dumps you into File Explorer (thus the direct opening thing won't work)
2. It doesn't seem to let you map a drive that is more than 1 level deep; for example, I have a share on\\server\users\myname, but the program will only go to \\server\users. This is fine if all of your drives are 1 level down, unfortunately some of the ones I use at work are not.
If I'm wrong about these things or am not using it correctly please correct me, but I seem to have everything set up the right way.

This is the coolest software. I shared all the music on my hard drive and maped it as a folder on my ipaq. Now, with my wireless nic, I have days worth of music comming to my ipaq as I walk around the building!!
The new version of Resco file explorer does the same thing except for the show the \network folder. When you map a network drive in net use it also shows up in the my network in Resco.
Very COOL!!

Not sure if this is suppose to work.. but I am not able to set a Default Domain so you can do browsing. And yes mapping one of your shares will work. You just have soft reset after you have check it in the tools, options area. This works just like netrunner just a bit different gui and of
course browsing. But can get this to work.

I found how you can save your mapped shares to show up in File Explorer, but it still won't directly map to a 2nd level folder beneath a share. Windows 98 did the same thing, but 2000/XP allow you to map to a specific folder under a share. Maybe I'm just spoiled by that.
