Disconnect Drive mapping

[YorS]

I have a win2K server SP4 with Citrix (1.3). I can not remove an unwanted
drive mapping.
For a long time this machine was mapping to a server share that we would
like to retire. New machine is in place. But when I try to change the drive
mapping so that the drive letter now points to the New machine it persists
in connecting to the old machine (share).
I need the Drive mapping to use the New share else I need to re-install all
the clients for this program.
I have clicked on Tools and select disconnect drive and it disappears, till
I log on again and it is back. I have created a "new" profile and get the
same thing. I try a "net use" command with Persistent set (for new share)
and the next time I log on it is back to the old share.
Where is this info stored so that I can blow it away? It is driving me nuts.

Do you use a logon script?? It could be getting done there.

Yes we do, but for testing this problem, the "new" account used none and
problem does not change. I have also checked and rechecked all the scripts
in use. If the same person logs on to a different machine using the script
they always use no problem. Log on to the machine in question, with same
script used a moment ago, and this old drive mapping comes back.
So not Scripts.
Any time anybody logs on that old drive is back.

Check this registry key. It it is set to yes, change it to no.
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Network\Persistent
Connections

Place this command into your logon script:

net use /persistent:no

Thanks all for the suggestions. However I was able to find the file
responsible, was UsrLogon.Cmd in the System32 folder, used a text editor and
I am going.
Again thanks for the feed back.
