Is it possible to give windows xp clients that aren't connected to a domain controller the ability to have a login script to mount network drives?

I know on the domain if they are connected you can use netuse script but, I want to be able to modify a bunch of xp clients in an office to join a network share point without being connected to the domain.

thanks!

You can create a script and put it in the All users -> Startup folder on each client.
Other than doing this or something like this then the answer is no.
The Domain controller varifies and distributes startup scripts, GPOs etc.
Without being a member of the domain there is no simple way of distributing them from a centrel location.

Thanks for the thanks
