samba - Nov 2007 - net use h: /home syntax?

I am setting up a Win98 client to work with my samba server. I can log in on 
the domain allright, but then I would expect to get access to my home 
directory by issuing (in a DOS box):

NET USE H: /HOME

For some reason I am told that the syntax is not correct. On the other hand 
net use /? gives exactly this as one of the options. Does anyone know what is 
wrong with it?

You're running this from Windo(w)s, so use the paths as Windows knows them.

net use h: \\fooserver\yourusername

(if you configured the [homes] share in Samba)
