Map network drive

[Spale]

I need to map network drive for my users through group policy.Machines are
Windows Xp.Is there any adm template or script to do this?

 

[Johan Arwidmark]

Use login script using Group Policy

Option 1 (batchfile):
net use f: \\server\share

Option 2 (vbscript) :
Set wshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "F:","\\server\share"'

Spale,

Excuse me please for jumping in. I have not forgotten about your question
to my response some time ago about the "Optimized Network Logon" feature of
WIN XP Pro causing problems with 'traditional' logon scripts. I have not
found where that setting is yet.

Hy Cary,


I don't remember if i ask you something about WindowsXP.I had some problems
with DFS butt you did'nt answer me.I even send you an e-mail.OK how would
you solve this situation with mapped drive?

 

[Johan Arwidmark]

Option 1 (batchfile):
net use F: /delete
net use F: \\server\vbbhdocs

Option 2 (vbscript) :
Set wshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "F:"
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "F:","\\server\vbbhdocs"'

Did you send me an e-mail? Opps. I will have to look! I am sorry for not
responding! That does not usually happen.

I think that the suggestions that Johan has given you make perfect sense to
me. I might go with the .vbs / GPO solution...

Again, sorry for not responding to your e-mail. I am sure that I did not
receive it.

OK Carry it's not a problem.If you can help me something with DFS it will be
great.This is my e-mail at work (e-mail address removed) send me an e-mail.


Thanks

Spale,

Will gladly. Must have accidentally deleted it with the other 15 e-mails
that I get that are garbage everytime I open up OE.
