Allow mapping of network-shares to vertain drives only

[Philipp Stummer]

Hi there!

Does anybody know if it's possible to allow the mapping of a
netowrk-share to certain lokal drives only?
I would allow my users in my AD-Domain only to map network-shares to
the drives H: to Z: for example. The drives A: to G: are reserved for
local resources like Floppy, HDD, CD-Rom, USB-Devices, etc.

In my opinion it should be somehow possible to accomplish this because
the novell-client could handle this task since I know (and asumably
even longer)

Why not just use a login script (either specified in ADUC or via group
policy)? Local mappings are not something you should use or can control in
terms of drive letter, etc....an example of a simple login script batch file
below:

net use * /del
net use h: \\server\share /persistent:no
net use i: \\server\share /persistent:no

etc...
