How to rename network drives in a logon script?

[Guest chrbar]

Hi,

 

I've used a script in the past, but I don't remember it!

 

I think it was a batch file in a logon script.

It was a script which allow to rename the network drives with a choosen

name, instead of the default name.

 

Network drive with default name looks like:

temp$ on 'ghost1' (T:\)

 

Network drive renamed looks like:

Temporary Files (T:\)

 

Do you know which script can I use to do that?

 

Thanks,

Chris

Hi,

 

This one have I seen work

 

'----------------------------------------------------------------

Set objNetwork = Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")

set oShellApp=CreateObject("Shell.Application")

 

objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "T:", "\\ghost1\temp$"

oShellApp.NameSpace("T:").Self.Name = "Temporary Files"

'----------------------------------------------------------------

 

Just change the two last lines for further mapping/renaming.
