Our Corporate office found a 3rd party utility, ActiveDriveMapping.EXE, that allows us to set drivemapping properties to a group object, then nest user groups within it to provide those resources. When I try to set the following mappings
P To: \\SLCR01APPS01\HOME\%Username% an
E To: \\SLCR01EXC01\USERS\%Username
I get the following errors
Error -2147023693 attaching P: to share point \\SLCR01APPS01\HOME\%Username
Error -2147024811 attaching E: to share point \\SLCR01EXC01\Users\%Username
I've tried it like that, with singe quotes, and with double quotes, and I still get the same message. When I use Start-Run, o
run a batch file on my local machine, they work fine. I found a script variable called LoginUsername, but that doesn't work either

These are 4.0 Domain sharepoints. I am an administrator in both the ADS and 4.0 domains, and my identical user accounts hav
full access to my folders in those areas. Any thoughts/suggestions returned via email would sure be welcome !!!!!!!!

I don't know this utility, but if 'you' try to set the above, what would
resolve %Username% to the users share.

I suggest you find and read the ActiveDriveMapping docs, as there would have to
be a special construct to handle this.

As an experiment, will it let you map to \\SLCR01APPS01\HOME\RealUserName
?

Are the users folders shared or is \HOME shared?

If the user folders are shared, are you sure it isn't
\\SLCR01APPS01\HOME\RealUserName$
?
