Group plicy works intermittently!!

canaan

I have a group policy object called "Map users".
In this policy I have logon script policy(User configuration >Windows setting >scripts>logon)

This script basically maps users to different folder on the server.
The problem is that the script, for some mysterious, reason doesn't work all the time. Even though it's in the same OU as the users and the client computers and is linked to it.
I’m not sure if it’s the user or the client computer that’s determining whether the script works. It’s very intermittent

This is a copy the script:
(' Map the G to apps
Set objNetwork = Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "G:", "\\servername\ClientApps"

'Map H to user's home drive
set wshnet = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
username = wshnet.userName
wshnet.MapNetworkDrive "H:", "\\servername\Users\" & username
)

I would really appreciate any help.

Why dont you recreate the same logon script and use the net use command to map the drives and test to see if it works then troubleshoot your vbscript.

To troubleshoot mapdrives to usernames:

****************************************************
Option Explicit
Dim objNetwork
Dim strDriveLetter, strRemotePath, strUserName
strDriveLetter = "H:"
strRemotePath = "\\alan\home"

' Purpose of script to create a network object. (objNetwork)
' Then to apply the MapNetworkDrive method. Result H: drive
Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
' Here is where we extract the UserName
strUserName = objNetwork.UserName
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive strDriveLetter, strRemotePath _
& "\" & strUserName

' Extra code just to add a message box
WScript.Echo " Launch Explorer, check: "& strDriveLetter
WScript.Quit

' End of script.

******************************************************

To troubleshoot map drives:

Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "H:" , "\\alan\home"

Hope this helps.
