RE: Map network drives for different users

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I solved a similar issue through the use of Group Policies.

In my case the Active Directory and file system structures were designed to
match the organizational structure, with each department having it's own
Organizational Unit and data storage area. A logon script in the default
Group Policy maps drives common to all users, then each department OU has a
GP which includes a logon script that maps the drives specific to the
individuals that department.

Cheers,
Adrian

Hi,

I have to map a few network drives. Some are global to all users and some
are only for some specific users.
How can I do that in the domain instead of doing it on each PC?

Thanks.
