Teach users to look in "My Network Places".
Then create one for as they login with a .vbs script:
Const NETHOOD = &H13&
Set objWSHShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(NETHOOD)
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
strNetHood = objFolderItem.Path
strShortcutName = "ANSCI"
strShortcutPath = "\\domainname\ANSCIShare "
Set objShortcut = objWSHShell.CreateShortcut _
(strNetHood & "\" & strShortcutName & ".lnk")
objShortcut.TargetPath = strShortcutPath
objShortcut.Save

Subject: Browsing DFS space
I'm wondering if there is an easy way for users to browse DFS space. I
created a DFS share called ANSCIShare. The only way I've found of
getting to it is to click Start | Run and type //domainname/ANSCIShare.
It doesn't show up in "Network Neighborhood" with the list of all the
computers. If I do Start | Run and type //domainname all I see is
NETLOGON and SYSVOL. Perhaps I haven't got it set up properly? Perhaps
there is some other way that is easier for end users to get to go it
than the Start | Run technique? Thanks for your help.
