2 Drive mappings on login

Hello all,

I am trying to figure out how to map 2 drives for domain users on a Windows NT 4.0 domain server with Windows 2000 professional clients. I currently have a personal drive mapped under the Profile button for each user. I also want to add a common drive where users can share files, drivers, downloads, etc...

The only way I have been able to do it is through a permanent drive mapping. The problem with this is it is client machine specific. In other words, if they log into another machine, they will only get their personal drive mapped. They will need to re-do the common drive mapping.

Is there a way to map two (or more) domain drives so that they are both restored whenever a user logs in regardless of the client machine they login to?

Thanks a lot.
 
You can specify a login script in the netlogon directory of the server.

example with login.bat:

net use q:\\server\users
net use r: \\server\shared
Then you'd have to specify the logon script in the user profiles. You could also use kickstart to do it, but I never have, just heard of it being done.

Uh, google should be a fine resource for this sort of thing...search for login scripts, mapping drives, whatever you're interested in. Should pull something up.
