The use of a logon script is discouraged as it will
vastly compromise the security of your system.
Forget the thought.

It can be as simple as a batch file called at login

net use x: \\computer\sharename

A little more info about what you want to do with it would allow a more
direct answer.
Are you wanting to know how to write the script or how to set it up to be
executed?

Discouraged by whom?

Why is it a security issue?

How so?

They're used all the time in the SBS world, and for the life of me, I can't
see how a script that runs when you login can "vastly compromise the
security of your system".

(Unless we're using different meanings for "login script")
