We have about 50 users that we want to send a RDP icon to. This rdp icon
launches the user directly into an application which is being accessed
through a terminal server to a stand alone Windows 2003 server. Using the my
credentials I mapped a drive on the terminal server to the application on the
standalone server. My problem is that when a user launches the RDC icon they
are not pre-mapped on the terminal server to the share on the standalone
server which causes the application not to launch and they get bounced out of
the session. Is there a way to map these users to the application server
without using a group policy in active directory. In order to use a gp in ad
we would have to involve headquarters and we would like to do this locally.
Thanks in advance, Gloria
 
Re: Drive Mappings

Just map the drive in a logon script for all users:

net use X: \\server\share
