OK, re querying the registry - how could I find this without being logged on locally to the PC? I mean I know I can remotely connect via regedit but this only lets me query HK_LM/HK_USERS - it doesn't let me directly query HK_CU which is where I presume any reference to a statically mapped drive

HK_CU is just an alias to the HKUsers/SID hive. You can find their SID a number of different ways but I use PowerShell and the Quest tools: $(get-qaduser $user).sid | Select Value Assuming you are using an AD domain, too. HTH Joe From: cs [mailto:chr...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday,

That won't work, psexec would only show the mapped drives for the user running it. Statically mapped drives (aka ones where the reconnect at login is checked) can be read from the registry. Hopefully any other mapped drives come from your login script. ;) From: Ziots, Edward
