This snippet of code works mapping to a network drive - Windows or Samba.  

  // We can map via IP address or system name
  if(CbxUseIP->Checked)
    RemoteName = "\\\\"+EdtIpAddress->Text+AnsiString(ShareName); 
  else
    RemoteName = "\\\\"+EdtComputerName->Text+AnsiString(ShareName);
  // An avilable drive letter was selected	
  AnsiString DriveName = CbxAvailDrives->Text.c_str();
  NETRESOURCE nr;
  DWORD dwFlags;
  ZeroMemory(&nr, sizeof(nr));
  nr.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_DISK;
  nr.lpLocalName = DriveName.c_str();   
  nr.lpRemoteName = RemoteName.c_str(); 
  dwFlags = NULL;
  if(CbxRemember->Checked)
    dwFlags = dwFlags | CONNECT_UPDATE_PROFILE;

  Screen->Cursor = crHourGlass;
  int rc;
  rc = WNetAddConnection2(&nr,EdtPasswd->Text.c_str(), EdtUserName->Text.c_str(), dwFlags);
  Screen->Cursor = crDefault;
  if(rc != NO_ERROR)
  {
    // A special message for this
    if(rc == ERROR_BAD_NETPATH)
      MessageDlg("The network path cannot be found.", mtError, TMsgDlgButtons() << mbOK, 0);
    else
      GetLastErrorStr( rc );
    return false;
  }
