Login scripts

M

manav

I've got a NT domain with a Windows 2000 member server.
The home directories for users are moved across from the
NT server to 2000 member server.

My login script has "net use h: \\win2000\home /home"
entry which does not map to the username's directory.
Instead, the login script maps the H drive to \\win2000
\home.

Within a user profile, I've tried adding or removing
Connect To option, where I selected H: and then entered
the location mentioned above to connect to the user's home
directory.

What must I do to direct each user's home directory to
\\win2000\home\user1 using the login script?

thanks in advance...

I believe this is where you need the wildcard.

If you end the location with '%username%' it should lead
users to their own home folder. You need to type the
above as is(without the ' ' ) for the wildcard to work.
It should then fill in the name itself.

Thanks, man.

I thought if I had used the wildcard, it would attempt to
create another folder for that user. I'll try this and
post the results here.

Doesn't work!

If I use %username% as wildcard for a new user, Win2000
server creates a folder for that user, but won't connect a
drive letter to it. Bizzar but true. It display Error 67
and 3916 everytime the script runs. Funny enough, the same
script maps other drives such as Shared folders on the
same server.

This is really bugging me now... It's a simple script but
the Home directories won't map!

again... I use net user h: \\win2000\home /home which has
not worked!

any help would be much appreciated!
