Hello,

I have several pcs running 98 for the time being and I am
planning to roll an active directory infastructure. Can
anyone tell me the best method to map drives I dont think
I can use Group policy with 98. I will be moving to xp pro
later but need these mapped for my migration.

Thanks
Ryan

Ryan,

I am not sure if I understand your question. If you want
a logon script to map drives you can use that. Just put
it in the NETLOGON share and call it something like
logon.bat. Then, go to ADUC to each user account and make
sure that you mention logon.bat. However, an even better
method would be to use ADModify so that you simply have to
go to one place rather than to XXXX number of user account.

If you have problems with some of the "nested" shares with
the WIN98 Clients then you can share those individual
folders separately ( sorry! maybe this will hasten the
move...I am dealing with this right now! Seven WIN2000
machines and 32 WIN98 machines ) then you can simply use
the IF "%OS%" == "WINDOWS_NT" syntax in the logon script..

HTH,

Cary
