Without your code it makes it hard to really see what's up, but if you use the UNC rather than a mapped drive you won't need for windows to reconnect or connect at all for that matter. Try something like this.
open DH, "\\\\machine\\share" or warn $!;
my @dir_listing = readdir(DH);
close DH;
That will give you an array with the contents of the directory. You don't need to connect to "x:\\whatever" as long as you know the machine and share is called. Also, if you or someone should change the drive mapping it won't matter.
Good Luck!

I'll check that out as it's the simplest solution. My concern is that windows won't automagically poppup the username and password box. But I'll check it out.

That just might be what I'm looking for.
