Windows 2000 Server question

Here's my situation: I have a whole bunch of workstations that run Windows 98 Second Edition. They all authenticate user names through the Win2k Server. What I am wondering is, is there any way to have the workstations automatically map a home directory when the log on? In the profiles thing for the users, I tell it to map a drive letter (H🙂 to \\Server\User Files\%username%, however, Windows 98 won't map the drive for some reason. When I log on locally to the server, it will map the drive. Any way to get Windows 98 to do this too?
 
Try adding a login script with a line like the following:

net use h: \\Server\User Files\%username%

Works for me in NT4 Server with Win98 Clients

Actually I believe my net use line is:

net use h: /home
 
Thanks for the help. I won't be able to test till Tuesday, thanks to our awesome Canadian holiday tommorow, which we then end up getting Monday off work. Hopefully this works.
