Look at your net use commands for the Finance and Shared folders. You have
too many \\'s after the servername.

Thanks for the help guys, sadly the problem still there. I added the home
share to the user's profile and that seems to work fine. Oddly enough, I
get
the first net use command mapped fine. The second and third map commands
do
not work, I get the 53 error.

I can map the shares manually with no problem. I can hit the SBS server
via
the ie with issues either. My batch file looks like this now:

@echo off
net use p: /d
net use p: \\NAVIGATOR\APPS

net use x: /d
net use x: \\NAVIGATOR\\FINANCE

net use s: /d
net use s: \\NAVIGATOR\\SHARED

Thanks

No reason that shouldn't work. Make sure on the client PC all old

shares are disconnected first.

Error 53 may mean your DNS is not setup properly. Try this google search

Greetings all -

I need help desperately, the more I read the more confused I get. We
just
installed an SBS 2003 (pretty cool stuff)server and want to migrate my
clients from the existing 2000 server network. I'm testing logon
scripts
to
map to multiple shares on the SBS server, and to save my life I can't
get
it
to work. So I have multiple questions (please be patient with me ;-)).

I created the following shares in addition to the existing "Users"
share:
Finance, Apps and Shared. I also created an account called "Nabil" with
admin rights to test the login process.

I added the following lines to the default batch script
"SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat" :

\\NAVIGATOR\Clients\Setup\setup.exe /s NAVIGATOR

@echo off
net use p: /d
net use p: \\NAVIGATOR\APPS /yes

net use x: /d
net use x: \\NAVIGATOR\\FINANCE /YES

net use s: /d
net use s: \\NAVIGATOR\\SHARED /YES

/homedir:\\NAVIGATOR\%username%$

When I logon and authenticate to SBS, the only drive maps is "P" and I
keep
getting error 53.

So, how I can map these drives when users logon? We're a small site,
either
AD or a batch file works for me. However, I would like to do what the
best
practices are. Also, How can I make the process automated when the
next
user
is added?

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Nabil
