Hi,

I've used a script in the past, but I don't remember it!

I think it was a batch file in a logon script.
It was a script which allow to rename the network drives with a choosen
name, instead of the default name.

Network drive with default name looks like:
temp$ on 'ghost1' (T:\)

Network drive renamed looks like:
Temporary Files (T:\)

Do you know which script can I use to do that?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,

This one have I seen work

'----------------------------------------------------------------
Set objNetwork = Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
set oShellApp=CreateObject("Shell.Application")

objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "T:", "\\ghost1\temp$"
oShellApp.NameSpace("T:").Self.Name = "Temporary Files"
'----------------------------------------------------------------

Just change the two last lines for further mapping/renaming.
