Problems with disks mapped to share like net use p: \\server\share

[Guest Tor-Magne]

Hi

 

I have windows server 2003, the clients are Win XP - all are updated.

The disks are mapped using "net use ..." in a bat file.

Sometimes the win xp client don't have any driveletters to the mapped disks

afther a logon and can't start apps on the shared disks.

They doubleclick on an icon pointing to the logonscript - then everything is

ok.

 

Can you help mee troubleskoot this case - I have little info and no

eventfiles now.

Hello Tor-Magne,

 

Have you enabled the policy "Always wait for the network at computer startup

and logon" in a GPO.

 

Best regards

Modify your logon script as below, then examine c:\test.txt after the user

reports a problem. Remember to remove the logging instructions after you've

solved your problem!

@echo off

echo %date% %time% %UserName% >> c:\test.txt

net use S: \\YourServer\Sales 1>>c:\test.txt 2>>&1

net use T: \\YourServer\Transport 1>>c:\test.txt 2>>&1

net use 1>>c:\test.txt 2>>&1

echo. >>c:\test.txt
