| Vista Mapping Drives Like Crazy I have a logon script that uses net use to map S:\ and U:\ to two different server shares. I added a Vista machine to the network a few months ago and just today it started getting a little loopy with drive mappings. F through Z are all mapped when it should only be S:\ and U:\. I've disconnected all those extra drive letters, but they returned. |

| Re: Vista Mapping Drives Like Crazy When I restart the computer all of the drive mappings are gone, except for the ones that are supposed to be there. It's now 6 hours later and Vista has R-Z mapped. I won't be surprised if F-Z are mapped by the end of the day.

It concerns UAC. I don't pretend to understand it but my search on "login script to map drives in Vista" got me to this site: [url]http://www.developersdex.com/asp/message.asp?p=593&r=5431945&Page=1[/url] Not exactly what you are experiencing but it does indicate there is a problem mapping drives with a script in Vista. gls858 |
