Since purchasing new machine and going to WinXP
Professional from win2000 we are all experiencing
problems with mapping drives. If the user logs in to
quickly from the ctrl+alt+del screen it will not map the
drives. Each user has a user directory on the server
with a logon script to map a personal drive and community
folder on the server. Is there some sort of registry
hack to force it to load this task first.
 
There sure is, Jason -

I'd fix it with a local or domain policy -

Enable the "Always wait for the network at computer
startup and logon" policy setting.

This setting is in the Computer
Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Logon node
of the Group Policy Object Editor (gpedit.msc)
