Mapped Drives

billybob01

I`m currently just messing around with shared drives and setting up Profiles and Home folders on my test domain. But i would like to know how i could set up some drives that when my users log in they too can see these.

You can do this by creating Logon Scripts using Group Policy objects (GPO).

Put all user who you want to see these drives in one OU....Then Create a logon srcipt for tht OU using GPO....

also you can specify logon scripts through the user properties in active directory users and computer, but if you did it this way you would have to do each one manually, so the GPO way would probably be easier.

reg editing
map drives
map printer
set default printers
decision logic read the groups with its code

if ingroup ("admins") do this or do that..

We use kix also but in special tool - Desktop Authority from Scriptlogic. (www.scriptlogic.com) It's much more easier than script handwriting at all. You will be able to do such things that itdaddy listed and much more. And with validation logic you can be more granular in settings apply.
