Create a network drive via domain policy

[Tal Amir]

whats the most effective way to accomplish that ?
i'd like a network drive to be mapped to a share on our file server for
every user using a script on login.
that script should also enforce security for that user as read\write to the
remote directory.

any idea's ?

GPO setting or GPO enabled batch Login script.

i'd like a network drive to be mapped to a share on our file server for
every user using a script on login.

Then use the script. Easiest is to build the script USING the
GPEdit mmc so that it will suggest storing the actual file in the
correct place. (If you already have the script then paste your
current source into the GPEdit provided notepad.)

that script should also enforce security for that user as read\write to the
remote directory.

That is done on the SERVER side, not when the user tries to use the
drive (i.e., not during mapping.)

Set the Share permissions on the Server (Explorer or Net Share command)
AND set the NTFS permission on the actual files and directories located
there (using Explorer or Cacls.exe or XCacls.exe).
