 Netware 3.12 and VB4 drive logging problems

Are there any Novell gurus out there using VB4 16 bit/ WIN 3.1  who
can help me? I need to map 2 drives from a server into my drive list,
execute a EXE file, then disconnect from the drives. I have tried the
WNetAdd API call, but it won't work because:

        1. I need to provide a username and a password, and WNetAdd
         only allows a password.

        2. The username I log in under is not the username used for
        this net connection.

I am able to make the connection and see the drives I need through the
File Manager, where it asks for the username and password. This means
there ARE calls available for the functions I need, I just am unable
to find them.

Any ideas?

You either need to get the Novell Client SDK or a third party
DLL to do this.  Many companies offer these.  One bit of advice,
DO NOT get NetPak from Crescent.  They are a bunch of self-
absorbed fools who will not help you even when bugs are
exposed in their product.
