Windows 2000 Mapping Drives

D

David Dilworth

At my work place, I need to map more drives than there are letter for. Does
anyone know of a utility I could use to help me map more drives so I won't
have to disconnect and reconnect every time I need to get to a different
machine? The drives I map are all different servers. Not two mapping are to
the same
machine. It would also be nice to group the drive mapping together since I
map so
many drives.

Once you run out of drive letters, that's it ... period.

You might consider using "Mountvol" to reduce the number of local drive
letters consumed, that might buy you a few additional drive letters.

Other than that, all I can come up with is the possiblity of a cmd script to
help with automating the disconnect/reconnect task.

I'd just get used to using UNC paths instead. To be honest, if I had that
many resources that I used up all 23 available drive letters, I'd seriously
consider consolidation.
