Disconnecting from a network drive

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello all, I have the following code that maps a remote drive to the letter E. I first need to check to see if this drive letter "E" is already in use, and if so I need to disconnect it and re-map with the follwing code... Any suggestions?


use strict;
use Win32::NetResource;

print "Mapping drives from .ini file...";
    
    my %NetResource = (
    LocalName  => "E:",
    RemoteName => "\\\\Srvbuild\\E"
    );
    
    my $User = "";
    my $Password = "";
    if ( Win32::NetResource::AddConnection( \%NetResource, $Password, 
+$User, 0))
    {
        print "Done\n";
    }
