Mapping a Win2k server @ login

[Scott]

Hi all!

I have a quick, hopefully easy, question for you guys out
there.

I need to know how to map a Windows 2000 server drive to a
workstation at login. For example, I'm user A. I have
access to drives W, X, Y, and Z. I need to be able to log
into any machine in our network and at login, those four
drives will be mapped to the computer I'm working on at
the time. When I log off, those drives are removed.

We do have a Novell network here, if that makes a huge
difference.

Thanks!

Scott

If you are authenticating through the Netware box then modify your login
script to include the dos command below (don't remember how to do that
anymore :-( )

If you are using the 2000 server as an AD controller, create a batch file
that contains the below dos command, and copy it to the server's NETLOGON
share folder. Its usually
\\[servername]\c$\WINNT\SYSVOL\sysvol\[domainname]\scripts

dos command:
net use W: \\servername\sharename

Then, In the Active Directory Users and Computers mmc, open up your account
and add the name of the batch file you created into the Profile tab, in the
login script box. (do NOT include the path, just the file name.)
