best method...

[Guest Chris Meehan]

I have 2 forests that do NOT have any trusts setup. IP and DNS connectivity

is there and I can manually map a network drive from a server in domain a to

domain b. What would be the best method to keep this driver persistent for

any user that logs into the box and not have to provide the other domain

credentials for the mapping at every login.

 

Thanks in advance.

Credentials must be provided if there is no trust. Either the credentials

could be hard coded in a logon script (not recommended) or the user is

prompted.
