For running under SYSTEM, you need null sessions to attach to network resources. For a nice introdution and discussion of null sessions see this paper, also naming this restriction on page 5.

    ++ for the interesting link!

    Due to the lack of responses on this, I will tackle it using the "net use" method. I was just hoping for something nice like:

    if ( $nt->login($server,$name,$pass) ) {
    # do things
    $nt->logout();
} else {
    report("Failed logging in to $server: " . $nt->errmsg);
}
