Asterisk in GP login script

[Guest]

In creating a group policy login script. All drives are mapping correctly
exept the ones that are wild cards. I thought they were supposed to use the
next available drive letter but they are not working. Any help would be
appreciated....

Mike,

I am not seeing any reference to this anywhere in the literature so
let's make sure that there is not something else that is stopping this
from working. I am sure you have tried this already, but can you
confirm that you can run the command on the workstation itself outside
of the script? How about the batch file?

I just want to rule anything silly out.

If it worked there as both the batch and at the console, then it has to
be the GPO handoff that is interfering. I would suggest that you change
the GPO settings to show the script as it is running and put a pause in
at the end of it so you can catch the error message.

Also, make sure that this is a user script rather than a computer
script. I have seen cases where commands don't work well if they try
to run before the UI is fully loaded.
