[Tutor] python win32 drive mapping help

[Vineet Kothari]

Can you also help me out with the way to delete the mapped drive I know in
command line it is

> net use [DRIVE:] /delete
>

but I am unable to figure out how I can do it from python

Since I am trying to make sure that the drive name I am giving in my code:

> import win32net
> win32net.NetUseAdd(None,1,{'remote':r'\\server\share','local':'K:','password':'XXX'
> })


K: drive should not exist already & if it does then the mapping should be
removed first & then a new mapping should be established.

So it should be going something like:

if [mapping already exists]:
>    [delete mapping]
> else:
>    [create new mapping]
>

Thank You everyone for the help :)
