xcopy with credentials on remote machine [closed]

Question

I am trying to access a remote server on a different domain through its IP address. In run command I entered the following

\\XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX\C$\Program Files\ 

I get a pop up window asking for username and password. I enter it, and accessed the path. When I try accessing the folder again it do not ask for my password. But when I restart, it does give the popup again.

Is there a way to add my credentials?? Lets say my domain\username is MyDomain\RapsyTree. I tried the following:

cmdkey /generic:TERMSRV/YYY.YY.YYY.YYY /user:YourDomain\rapsalands /pass:secretPass 

The credentials are getting added. But I am still getting the pop up for username and password.

Actually I am trying to xcopy some files on this server on different domain. But I need to do it with different credentials. I am using batch files. Any pointers will be of great help. Let me know if I am not clear. I am using Windows 7 Thanks!

You just have to map a network drive:

net use Z: \\XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX\C$ password /user:domain\username  

If you want the drive to reconnect at next logon, add the option /persistent:yes
