Mapping drives at log on

I have a 2012 Server and created a GP to map a drive not part of the domain (in a work-group), everything works OK, but I keep getting the prompt asking for credentials to access this NAS server. I saved the credentials in the GP created to map this drive, however I still get the prompt asking for credentials regardless.

Thanks,

Can you join the NAS to the domain and /or setup LDAP so that when you map the drive, it knows the users credentials and won't ask for it?

What make / model is the NAS?

I know that Synology NAS's can 'join' a domain and we use them extensively for our customers and they work very well.

Qnap and buffalo NAS boxes can also join domains.
Cheers Thomas - always good to know Synology are not unique ;)  I had a feeling Qnap would but haven't played with a Buffalo before (too big and hairy for my liking)!!
