Am running an NT network. NT Servers and all NT clients. Using roaming profiles.

Several users are having problems viewing drives (local and network).All network drives are mapped by logon script except the home drive which is set by profile. Logon script is working

For example:
One user can only see the C: drive from explorer. Go to map a drive and the drives are all there in the drive letter list.
From MSWord/File/Open the only drive visible is a network drive (not even C:)
From a command line all drives can be accessed.

Any ideas??

Simple. Reinstall MSWord on each client. Make sure this Word works before you connect to the network.

In the policy editor, there are 2 ways of
hiding drives. First is by hide drives in "my computer", which affects local programs, but
not the command prompt. The second is
way down at the bottom of the policy setup, and ( duh... cannot remember right now )... is called something similar, but overrides the "my computer" settings.
