Does anyone have any good documentation or mapping network drives via a computer? I setup mapped drives via user accounts.. that was a no-brainer. Computer map drives seems like a no-brainer too but I can't get them to work.. I must be missing something.<br />
<br />
I'm linking the GP to the right OU. There are just computers in the OU... Thoughts?<br />
Thanks!
