Maproot on Win98/NT PCs in Win2k Active Directory
I'm trying to map a root drive for all PCs to the user's home drive.
Win2k clients work okay - they map to \\dataserver\users\%userna me%
I know this won't work for Win9x/NT clients. I just installed KixStart 4 but can't make the drive mapping work. Here is the syntax being used:
$PathToShares = "\\inet410\users\"
$user = @USERID
USE G: /DELETE /PERSISTENT
USE G: $PathToShares + $user
A plain USE g: "\\inet410\users" works just fine, but I want to go one level deeper.

>but I want to go one level deeper
did you share the folder one level deeper?
you must share this folder too, in order to map to it
you can only map to a share, if the filder one level down is not shared you can't map to it
