First things first, get acquainted with Vbscript, it's the best login script
processor, you can do a lot, and once you have a basic script you can easily
change it.
Logically you'd do the following
When setting up the account create their home drive, a share that is
something like \\server\username$ The $ makes it a hidden share, that way
your browse list isn't thousands of shares. Be sure to put this as their
home drive in the user properties.
The login script can then tell the process "Map the homedrive" That's it.
Now you have a login script, you will find things that you can do
automatically.

Subject: NEW to login scripts
Well im not new to it but haven't done one yet! I have a windows 2000 server
that I would like to set up a user/unsername folder and have them loginto
the domain and have the user script run and map the appropriate drives. How
can I make a script? Is there a script maker or something to do it or is it
hand coded? Sorry to sound dumb but very new to it.
thanks
