Disable Drive Mapping GPO when a user logs into a workstation in a particular subnet
We are running Windows 2008 R2 Native AD and use GPOs to map drives. This works great, but now I've been asked by a user group to not map drives when they log into a workstation in a particular subnet. Is there any way to do this using GPMC? Or is there a registry hack to tell the workstation not to apply GPOs for every user logging into the workstation??

Thanks brendanmeyer and yo_bee
I do use GPO preferences and I will take a look at the Item Level Targeting for each GPO. I have over 50 drive mapping GPOs. Do you know if there is a powershell command to configure this item?

Thanks to both brendanmeyer and yo_bee for their insight. I'll be addressing this issue on a drive mapping by drive mapping basis.
If you are using GPP just follow what BrendanMeyer suggested.
If you are using logon scripts (Which at this point you probably should switch to GPP) you can use WMI Filtering.
