VPN login twice to map drive

Hi, try this batch.

@echo off
net use H: /delete
net use H: \\example\exapledrive:

just change the h: and example and exampledrive: to your settings.

this batch deletes the existing mapped drive and remaps the drive,, this should solve your problem.

On other thing to check is the c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file to ensure the hosts are listed with their IP addresses...sometimes NetBios and DNS conflict and can't always connect to drives right away.

exactly! You need to define the ip address of your servers and their corresponding names in the lmhosts file in c:\windows\system32\etc\ then import it for the connection that the vpn uses.

Sugestions have worked but the problem I have not is 10 stores, all new machines, all win2k new install, vpn connects perfectly no problem, but can't map a drive through the vpn. all settings to other working stores same. all store ip addresses are different. Any help would be !! well helpfull. I could work this out myself in good time but you guys are possibly smarter than I,,, thankyou.
