Mapped Drives with GPO

[Steve]

I have a strange scenerio.

I have a user who works from home. Her home network is connected over a site
to site VPN. There is a logon script supposed to run via group policy when
they log in.

The vbs script appears with no errors, but I only get one mapped drive. The
other mappings don't seem to appear. Has anyone seen this before? I remember
hearing something before about something with the username and having the
first letter capitalized. This sounds really far fetched but stranger quirks
are known to exist.

Thanks for the help,

Logon domain script won't run when connecting VPN. What you can do is create
a batch on vpn client. The script may include rasdail to establish VPN and
mapping command so that you can have VPN and mapping. Or use CMAK. This link

I understand that they don't run with VPN. I'm not using Windows VPN. I have
a site to site link setup between routers. When the user logs on, they are
still authenticated by my DCs. Again, the logon script does run but I only
get one mapped drive. I have even run the vbs script by itself on teh machine
and it still doesn't work correctly. I know it is working because I can see
all of the drives unmapped (via the script) and then only one drive appears
(With the information in the script).

Any thoughts?

For troubleshooting, you may want to add each on and pause after each line
in the script so that you can see if any errors.
