Default Mapping drives with network logon script

I'm an intern helping out with the City of San Jose. They are in the process of having users access applications over the network whether at work or at home with the Citrix metaframe server on a Windows 2000 machine. The problem is that the user needs to manually map a drive to the server to access the applications. IT wants to automate it with a script. How would a logon script with a command to map a drive look like. I would appreciate any help.

Default Re: Mapping drives with network logon script

You can use the net command that comes with Windows 95/NT to map a network drive. For example, typing the following command at a DOS prompt will map a W network drive to a directory called DOCS on the system named SYSTEM1:
NET USE W: \\SYSTEM1\DOCS

You can also specify whether or not you want the drive to be remapped when you restart your computer. To do this add the parameter:
/PERSISTENT:YES or /PERSISTENT:NO

Note that the path on the net command must be \\systemname\directoryname. You cannot map a network drive to the root level of the AS/400 or to a directory more than one level deep with the net command. See the note at the end of this topic for an explanation.
