Mapped Home Drives in XP

G

Guest

I have 30 Win XP, SP 2 Machines connected to an I Series, which acts as a
home drive server. My problem is that on a daily basis the home drive share
only maps to the root of our server and not the users folder. In the profile
which is setup in AD on a Win 2003 server, it points to
\\server\home$\username.

However when the user logs on the majority of time XP will map to
\\server\home$ but miss out the username share. If the user reboots several
times, the correct mapping occurs. If anyone has any ideas, i would be
grateful.

Cheers

Ps, i have 170 Windows 2000 SP 3/4 machines running without any issues!!
