Active Directory 2003

[Stiganator]

I have the roaming profiles and home directories on the server and I have the My Docs redirecting to the home directory.

But I can't figure out how to make a share auto-map on login. I know I can do it by hand for each user, but I would like a more elegant solution.

The share in question is on the AD server. The domain is running at the highest level (2003 Domain).

Anyone know how I can make it so it will automatically map the share to say T: for each user?
One would think they would have had a simple menu like they do for the profiles and home directory.

You can add a login script to the users profiles the same way you would in an old-school NT domain. Here's a simple script to map a share:

net use X: /delete
net use X: \\server\sharename


Copy and paste it to a textfile and save it with a .cmd extension. Then copy and paste the script to the NETLOGON folder on your DC. Again you can add it to the users profiles in ADUC (Active Directory Users and Computers) or to their GPO in GPMC (Group Policy Management Console): User Configuration > Windows Settings > Scripts > Logon. Browse to the NETLOGON folder and add the script.

Then there's also VBScripting which is more robust:

yeah I did that shortly after, the problem was you couldn't use the FQDN you has to use the NetBIOS name.
