I want all my Remote Desktop users logging into the Terminal Server to
immediately have a drive P mapped to a shared drive. Isn't there a way to do
that using Terminal Server Configuration?
 
Re: All users map to Drive P

You can create in logon script:
net use P: \\share\sharedir /user:domain\user password

Thanks very much.
Any particular reason why the /user:domain\user password? Or , could I just
leave it out and force the drive letter mapping?

As long as the user name & password used to log onto the workstation are
the same as used to access the server. This will be the domain username
& password if the TS server is in a domain.

Also, the folder being mapped must have the necessary permissions for
that user (or a group) they belong to).....

Re: All users map to Drive P

yes. All the users will be logging into the Term Server with the same
credentials they use to login to their own workstations. Then, they would
normally use Remote Desktop to connect again to the Terminal Server using
their same credentials. So, if I understand correctly the script will read:

net use P: \\share\sharedir

since everyone will be logging into the Term Server with their own domain
credentials and the script will automatically assign drive P to the share.
I'll give it a go.
