AFAIK, you can't create a share and allow a SYSTEM user to access it. It 
just won't work. How did you do it?

It won't work with SYSTEM user.
Create another user, and map the drive as him.

However, the batch script has to be run as SYSTEM or Administrator.

Yes, why not.

Yes, you would have to run it like "net use \\server\share 
/user:domain\someuser password".

Read the documentation before you're trying to use something then.
