We had a new 2003 R2 server installed recently.

The VB network mapped drive script we had written does not work on the only Vista Business PC we have in the office.

When the user logs in his mapped network drives do not appear, he has to run the old .bat log-in script manually.

How do I fix this problem?

Thank you!
Jason

and if those dont seem to work you can turn off UAC to test if its the issue by

1. Click Start
2. Click Control Panel
3. Select System and Maintenance
4. Click Administrative Tools
5. Double-click System Configuration
6. If your prompted to Click Continue, then click continue
7. Select the Tools tab in the System Config window
