Tried looking at using PowerShell script with New-PSDrive to temp map the UNC path with a different credentials? I generally would request the shares be modified to include the monitoring account rather then store user credentials in LM and dealing with these users changing their passwords.
Thanks for the feedback @Mike Moniz
Totally got your point & makes sense!
The share modify is an option, however, we've some picky clients that would consider that a security concern since some shares contain very sensitive information to the company & our service accounts are available for multiple people within our organization.
Store the user credentials in LM would be more secure (from a manage point of view) because only a small number of engineers have permission to access the features that could retrieve those stored credentials.
I'll explore the 'New-PSDrive' thing & see if it's possible to do what we want (which is essentially what UNC Path already does but, with a different user). I didn't thought on that, thanks for the suggestion!
