When you say previously mounted with net use do you mean your jobs do
this in a batch script or that you did this on the machines as a
different user?

If it was the former what credentials are you supplying (since your
reuse-vmX users will not be members of any domain it is likely that
they have no access to this share without it)

If the latter then the reuse-vmX will certainly not have access to
those mount points - you have to put the net use in the job or make
some permanant modifications to the reuse accounts to give them access
(In the end I found it much easier to put the net use with embedded
passwords in the batch file)

I suggest that whatever you do you do a 

echo "dir listing w:"
dir w:
echo "dir listing w:\test"
dir w:\test

And see what the os can actually find (I'm guessing nothing)
