Hi,

Do you know the Kix utility?
It allow you to do what you want in a batch file with a specific syntax. Here an example:

First, install the Kix directory on the server.
Second, build text file using Notepad and name it Logon.kix like that:

IF INGROUP("Your_Group_Name_Here") > 0
use L: "\\Your_Server_Name\Your_Shared_Folder"
ENDIF

This Logon.kix must be called through your logon script located in NetLogon folder as follow:

C:\KIX\kix32 C:\KIX\Logon.kix

That's all

Hope it help

You can also use mapping thru the login script so as when people log in, it automatically maps the drive(s) for them.

Thanks for the Help, I made a script and used group policy to push it out to users during login.
