Home Folder

[Guest]

2K server with the Home Folder selected for the user under the Profile tab in
AD. The ME pc will not create the drive to the home folder. The only way I
can get it to work is if I use the NET USE command in the login script. Any
help is appreciated.

In a command prompt on the ME box, try

net use h: /home

and see if that works. If not, try

net use h: \\server\homedirshare

Remember, NT and Win9x cannot map to anything but a share- they can't map to
a subfolder of a share.

If you have the option, I *strongly* suggest you get all 9x computers off
your network. XP Pro SP2 would be best, but even just W2k Pro would be good.
Always a good idea to keep all client OSes exactly the same (esp. if you
decide to use roaming profiles, which I always do)

I can map to the drive using the "net use" command. The problem is when I
configure the user profile to connect a drive to the users home folder.

Don't do that anyway - you should always use login scripts. No static drive
mappings.
