Mounting Network Drives within directories, removing Netwo..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.configuration_manage (More info?)

In short:

Firstly: I want to be able to map a network drive within my local hard
drive. Rather than just having a network drive icon within My Computer. How
can I do that?

Secondly: I am wanting to remove a dead network printer, and I cannot. I
always get the error "Printer connection cannot be removed. You either
entered a printer name that was incorrect or the specified printer is no
longer available."

Of course its no longer friggin available, it's gone!, how can I remove it
from printers and faxes?
