I need to create stable mapped network drives on a Windows 2000 network with one 98 client.
I have a W2k server and 10 W2kPro clients. I also have 1 W98 client. I want to create the mapped drives at the server and have them download to the clients at logon. Can group policy handle this function? If so, how? Also is there a way to do this with the 98 machine? I need total control over this process. Thanks for your help.
You would need to upgrade the server to a domain controller to do this? Is this acceptable? Otherwise you will need to map these drives using a login script that runs in the startup group of each machine.

My server is a DC already but I have no idea how to crete a simple logon script that will run in a group policy to map network drives. Do I create in notepad? Where do I place the script once I create it? I guess I need a step by step. Thanks.

Thanks mikecr, this was helpful. I was able to run this script in GP w/o any problem, which I think is a better solution.
This link is pretty good...
