Net
Net (Net.exe) is a command-line tool that is useful for changing network configuration settings, starting and stopping services, and viewing shared resources. Although other tools provide friendlier interfaces for much of the functionality provided by Net, Net is very useful for quickly determining the available shared resources on local or remote computers. When you are troubleshooting connections to resources, this tool is useful for verifying that shared resources are available and for verifying the names of those shared resources.
