I do the same thing for printers at a client office. I created a cmd file and then place it in Startup subdir. Works for me perfectly.

The other way would be to use the GPO Startup.vbs script.

Is this helpful?

  Is there a way to write a script to run after login that will connect to a
  computer using the computer name (i.e. \\server ) instead of having to
  assign a network drive to a share on the computer?
  I have a script that maps a drive letter to a network share, but it fails on
  login because it can't find the network path.
     net use z: \\server\share password /user:admin /persistent:yes
  After I am logged in I can manually login to that computer like this
  start > run > \\server
  authentication window pops up
  I enter the username and password, and then I am connected.
  I can do this but the office girl can't remember to do this, so I want to
  automate it with a script that runs on start up
  both computers are stand alone (no domain controller). The server runs
  win2k, the client runs xp pro.
  thanks for your help
