We have roaming users in a domain. As each user roams from site to site we need to map a local share (at that site) to G:\. How do we do get the script to run, identify the site that they are at, then enter that server name into the logon script so that always map a drive to the local server share at the site that they are logining in at.

Solution has to be centrally managed or we would have local logon scripts.

Hi.

There is a scripting utility call KixTart. This is a major improvement on the generic limitations with batch files. KixTart is freeware, and has a function/variable called LSERVER that identifies the clients logon server, and this variable can be used to map the g:.

To get more information about KixTart, the LSERVER command, and to download it, go to http://kixtart.org

I hope this helps.
Regards.
