Herb, Thanks for the reply so quick.

I did mean permissions on my share and on ntfs, also my script has all the
permissions.
Can you elaborate on this "You might also wish to make
sure to map the drives persistently " Maybe we are just not talking the same
terms.
What really burns me is the fact that As my users log off and back in, they
appear and disapear. So i know that isnt a permissions issue, almost like a
resolution issue or something.
